This savory cheese loaf is great sliced in thin wedges to go with soup, salads or casseroles. I've served it to large crowds and received many compliments. One year, I gave it to our neighbor for Christmas. -Evelyn Bear, Kingston, Idaho

Herbed Cheese Ring Recipe
  • Prep: 35 min. + rising Bake: 20 min. + chilling
  • Yield: 24 Servings
35 20 55

Ingredients

  • 1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
  • 1/4 cup warm water (110° to 115°)
  • 1 cup warm milk (110° to 115°)
  • 1/4 cup canola oil
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon each dried oregano, basil and rosemary, crushed
  • FILLING:
  • 1-1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • TOPPING:
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 2 teaspoons sesame seeds
  • 4 teaspoons grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

  • In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add the milk, oil, honey, egg, salt, whole wheat flour, 1 cup all-purpose flour and herbs. Beat until blended. Stir in enough remaining all-purpose flour to form a soft dough. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • Punch dough down and turn onto a floured surface; divide in half. Roll one portion into a 15-in. x 10-in. rectangle. Combine filling ingredients; sprinkle half over dough. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a long side; pinch seams to seal.
  • Place seam side down on a greased baking sheet; pinch ends together to form a ring. With a sharp knife, cut 1/2-in. slashes at 2-in. intervals. Repeat with remaining dough and filling. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30 minutes.
  • Brush each ring with egg; sprinkle with sesame seeds and cheese. Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans to wire racks. Yield: 2 loaves (12 slices each).

Nice recipe - especially as you can do a lot of the work the day before. That made it easy to make and take into work - where it was very well received!
