CHEESE & ONION BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat a fan oven to 200 degrees celsius. Line a baking tray with tin foil and lightly sprinkle with flour.
• Mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, cheese, and onion in a large bowl.
• In a separate bowl, mix the egg, milk and sunflower oil.
• In small quantities, gradually add the wet mixture to the dry until a sticky dough is formed. Careful - you may not need to use all of the wet mixture!
• On a floured surface, roughly shape the dough into a flattened ball and place on the prepared baking tray. Place in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until cooked. The crust should be golden brown and starting to darken. A knife should come out clean when placed into the bread.
• Enjoy warm, straight out of the oven or when cooled.

CHEESE ONION GARLIC BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler.
• Slice the French baguettes diagonally into 3/4 inch slices.
• In a medium skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Combine the onions and garlic in the skillet. Cook and stir until tender. Set aside to cool.
• In a mixing bowl, combine the mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese and mayonnaise.
• On a cookie sheet, arrange the French bread slices in a single layer. Spread the onion and garlic mixture on the bread slices. Spread the cheese and mayonnaise mixture over the onion and garlic mixture on the bread slices. Broil about 5 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned. Serve immediately.

CARAMELIZED ONION CHEDDAR BREAD

Steps:

• Heat a glug of olive oil in a medium frying pan and add sliced onions. Cook on medium heat for 10-15 minutes until softened and then reduce the heat to low or med-low (depending on how hot your element is) and cook for an additional 45 minutes, until sweet and golden. Yep. 45 minutes. We're not taking short-cuts with this one, we're actually 'caramelizing' these onions.
• In a large bowl, add yeast, sugar and warm water. Leave 3-4 minutes until foamy. Add milk, olive oil, salt, caramelized onions and 4 cups of flour and mix together until a dough forms. If the dough is a little sticky, continue to dust with the remaining cup of flour. Knead until the dough is smooth and elastic. I love using my stand mixer for this with the dough hook attached, but kneading by hand is just as effective (and a great arm workout).
• Place dough in a lightly oiled bowl and let rise until doubled in size. Depending on the warmth of the room, this could take anywhere from 1-2 hours. If you have time for a slow rise, place the dough in the fridge overnight.
• Punch down the risen dough, cut into two equal portions and roll each portion out into a large rectangle. Sprinkle with cheddar cheese and thyme/rosemary, if using. Roll the rectangle up from the short edge creating a tight 'jelly roll'. Repeat with the second portion of dough.
• Using a very sharp knife, cut eat jelly roll of dough in half lengthwise. Pinch the ends of each halved roll together and braid them, one over the other, finishing the other end by pinching that dough together. Lightly grease two loaf pans, or line them with parchment paper. Gently place one dough braid in each loaf pan. Cover with a tea towel and let the dough rise a second time for approximately an hour.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake for 50 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through the baking time so they cook evenly. If the bread is browning too fast, move it to a lower rack in the oven and cover the top with a piece of aluminium foil. Let the loaves cool in the pan for 5 minutes before removing them from the pan.
