Ingredients
French Bread Dough
- 1 tablespoon yeast
- 1 ½ cup warm water
- 1 ½ tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 4-5 ½ cup flour
- 3 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 egg yolk
Filling
- ½ cup real butter, no substitutions softened
- 1 ½ tablespoon garlic bread seasoning
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions
- Combine yeast, water, and sugar in large mixing bowl and allow to stand 10 minutes or until bubbly. Add salt, vegetable oil, and egg yolk (set white aside for later) and combine. Add 3 cups flour and mix well until combined. Add enough remaining flour to make a soft dough that barely sticks to your finger. Knead, either by hand or in mixer (my personal and very lazy choice) for another 2-3 minutes. Cover and allow to rise 1 hour.
- While dough is rising, combine butter and garlic bread seasoning. Set aside.
- Roll your rough into a rectangle that’s about 18-20 inches by 6 inches. Smear garlic butter over the entire surface of the dough and then sprinkle with cheese.
- Roll up jelly-roll style and then use dental floss to cut into 12 equal slices, like you would making cinnamon rolls. Place each slice in a muffin tin. Cover with a clean cloth. Preheat oven to 350℉ and allow rolls to rise while the oven is heating.
- When the oven is ready, bake for 18-22 minutes.
- Pull these out of the oven and eat ’em up ASAP!
Spray a little non-stick cooking spray on your work surface and your rolling pin. Your dough won’t stick and clean-up is super easy!
You’re going to need to keep a CLOSE eye on these puppies during the last 10 minutes or so–once you notice the cheese getting brown, place a sheet of aluminum foil over the rolls (you don’t need to press it down or anything, just lay it on top). This will keep the cheese from burning, although it will get pretty brown on top. It’s okay, though, because the insides are still all ooey-gooey.
