Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
- 1 cup Warm milk
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 Egg
- 2 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, salt, and instant yeast.
Warm the milk until it's lukewarm (about 110°F/43°C) and add it to the dry ingredients along with the melted unsalted butter and egg. Mix until a dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for 8-10 minutes until it's smooth and elastic. Alternatively, you can use a stand mixer with a dough hook.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise for 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
Punch down the risen dough and roll it out into a rectangle, approximately 12x8 inches.
In a small bowl, mix the shredded mozzarella cheese with garlic powder and chopped parsley.
Sprinkle the cheese mixture evenly over the rolled-out dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
Starting at the long edge, tightly roll the dough into a log. Pinch the seams and ends to seal the loaf.
Place the loaf seam-side down in the prepared loaf pan. Cover it loosely with plastic wrap and let it rise again for 30 minutes.
Brush the top of the loaf with olive oil to give it a golden, shiny crust.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped.
Allow the loaf to cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm to enjoy the gooey, stringy cheese filling!
