Soft Cheese Butter Loaf

I have been making breads over the last few weekends. This afternoon, I made cheese butter loaf. It is so tasty and soft that I can't wait to write this post to capture the recipe.
 
 


 
 

Cheese Butter Loaf




Dry Ingredients:

  • 320g bread flour
  • 1 tsp instant yeast
  • 1/2 tsp salt
 

Wet Ingredients:

  • 1 egg (lightly beaten)
  • 33g honey
  • 165g low fat milk
  • 65g low fat cream cheese (soften)
 
  • 16g unsalted butter (soften)
 
  • 3 tbsp of grated Parmesan cheese
 

Topping Ingredients:

  • 15g soften unsalted butter
  • 15g soften cream cheese
  • 1 tbsp caster sugar
  • 1 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
 

Steps:

  1. Mix together the wet ingredients of egg, honey, milk and cream cheese and set aside.
  2. Mix together the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl.
  3. Add wet ingredients into the flour mixture.
  4. Knead by hand for 10 minutes. Add in butter and continue kneading until the dough become nonsticky and elastic. Sprinkle some flour if needed during the kneading process.
  5. Leave the dough in a oiled bowl, cover with fling wrap and let it rise until double in size.
  6. Once doubled, punch the dough down and move it to a work surface.
  7. Divide it into 6 balls.
  8. Stretch each ball into a long rectangular flattened piece, sprinkle some Parmesan cheese over the top. Roll it up from the short side. Place roll into a greased loaf pan, seamed side down. Repeat the same for the other 5 balls.
  9. Cover the loaf pan with fling wrap, let the rolls proof for the second time until double in size, around 30-40 minutes.
  10. To make the topping, mix everything together and set aside.
  11. Preheat oven to 175 degree C. Using a knife, make a long slit in the middle the loaf lengthwise.
  12. Spoon the topping over to cover the slit.
  13. Bake at 175 degree C for 10 minutes. Lower the temperature to 160 degree C and continue to bake for another 20 minutes.
  14. Brush with melted butter when it out from the oven.
 
We absolutely enjoyed the soft and yummy bread!
