A nice basic recipe for a 1 lb cheese bread from the bread machine. The mustard and pepper give it a nice lingering mouth feel. I think it stands on its own much more than most bread machine recipes for cheese bread; I would love it if you tried this even if you've already tried other recipes of this kind. [This is adapted from a recipe in The Bread Bible (Rose Levy Berenbaum), which is an excellent book of bread recipes and theory.]
Ingredients:
2/3 cup water, at room temperature
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon dijon mustard (i like grey poupon)
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons nonfat dry milk powder
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon yeast
1/3 cup extra-sharp cheddar cheese, cut into 1/4 inch cubes
Directions:
1. FETA VARIATION: Instead of the cheddar cheese and cayenne, use 1/3 cup cubed feta and 1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper.
2. Add the dough ingredients to your bread machine in the order suggested by your manufacturer. (Add the cayenne on top of the flour.).
3. Add the cheese to the extras dispenser of your machine. (If your machine doesn't have this feature, you may have to pay attention and add it after the initial rest.).
4. Set the machine for 1 lb/ white/ medium crust/ add extras.
5. I think this would be excellent with other cheese/pepper combinations. These are the only two I've tried. If you find another good varation - please post a review of it!
