Categories     < 60 Mins

Time 40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 tablespoon yeast
2 teaspoons sugar
3/4 cup water
2 tablespoons oil
2 cups flour
6 tablespoons butter (softened) or 6 tablespoons mayonnaise (softened)
6 tablespoons spicy brown mustard
8 ounces shaved ham
4 ounces shredded monterey jack and cheddar cheese blend

Steps:

  • For the crust:.
  • Place warm water in a bowl. Add yeast and sugar. Let it 'proof' for 5 minutes or so, until the yeast froths.
  • Stir in the oil, then work in the flour. Knead until smooth, and divide dough in half. Preheat the oven to 350* F.
  • Lightly oil a 16" baking sheet. Roll half of the dough out into a 15" square. The dough will be very thin, but the oil should prevent it from sticking to the baking sheet. (You may need to sprinkle a little flour on the dough to keep the rolling pin from sticking.).
  • Repeat with the remaining dough and another pan.
  • Blend together the mayo and mustard, and spread in a thin layer over the crusts.
  • Chop the ham into small pieces and distribute evenly over the 2 crusts.
  • Shred the cheese, and divide evenly over the 2 crusts.
  • Bake for 15 - 20 minutes, until crust is golden and crispy. Enjoy.

Time 2h30m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

Nonstick cooking spray
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
2 1/4 teaspoons dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Pinch cayenne pepper
3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon milk
1/3 cup vegetable oil
2 tablespoons honey
3 eggs
One 6-ounce piece deli ham, finely chopped (about 1 1/4 cups)
1 cup shredded gruyere cheese, lightly packed (about 3 ounces)
1/2 cup finely diced (about 1/4-inch) havarti or gruyere cheese (about 2 ounces)
2 scallions, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly spray a 9-by-5-by-3-inch metal loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, 3/4 teaspoon dry mustard, kosher salt and cayenne until combined. In a large bowl, whisk together 3/4 cup milk, the oil, 1 tablespoon honey and the eggs until smooth. Stir in the dry ingredients until just combined. Then fold in the ham, 3/4 cup shredded cheese, the diced cheese and scallions.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and sprinkle the top with the remaining 1/4 cup shredded cheese. Bake until well risen, golden brown and a skewer or cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes.

Heat in the microwave until hot and bubbling, 20 to 30 seconds. Turn the loaf onto a wire rack and generously brush with the warm glaze. Cool completely.

CHEESE, CHIVE & HAM TEAR-AND-SHARE BREAD



Cheese, chive & ham tear-and-share bread image

Bake this satisfying pull-apart loaf, stuffed with oozy cheese, mustard and ham. You can use any cheese you have in the fridge

Provided by Esther Clark

Categories     Side dish, Snack

Time 1h15m

Yield 18 small rolls

Number Of Ingredients 13

170ml whole milk
1 tsp caster sugar
100g unsalted butter , cut into cubes
1½ tsp fine sea salt
3 tsp English mustard powder
500g strong white bread flour
1 x 7g sachet fast-action dried yeast
4 medium eggs , lightly beaten, plus 1 to glaze
oil , for proving
250g mature cheddar , grated
50g parmesan , grated
½ bunch of chives , finely chopped
150g smoked ham , coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • Pour the milk into a pan and add the sugar and butter. Warm gently, swirling the pan until the butter has melted. Set aside until lukewarm.
  • Tip the salt, mustard, flour and yeast into a large mixing bowl and stir. Make a well in the centre, then pour in the beaten eggs and milk mixture. Swiftly mix with a wooden spoon to make a rough dough, then tip onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 10-15 mins until elastic and springy. Alternatively, knead in a stand mixer for 7-10 mins using the hook attachment. Lightly oil a large mixing bowl. Put the dough in the bowl and cover loosely with a tea towel. Leave in a warm place for 1½-2 hrs or until doubled in size.
  • Knock the dough back on a lightly floured surface by lightly punching and briefly kneading it. Sprinkle over half the cheese, all of the chives and all the ham. Knead the dough until the ham and cheese are well distributed. Divide the dough into 18 equal-sized balls. Pinch the bottoms to create uniform, round balls. Line a baking sheet with baking parchment and draw a 25cm round template on the parchment (a large dinner plate works well for this). Arrange the dough balls in concentric circles in the circle you have drawn. Fill each gap with another scattering of cheese. Cover lightly. Leave for 1-1½ hrs or until the dough is risen.
  • Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Beat the remaining egg and use to lightly brush the dough balls. Sprinkle over most of the remaining cheese, then bake for 25 mins. Sprinkle over the last of the cheese and bake for 5 mins more. Leave to cool a little before serving warm.

Time 2h45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
1 cup warm water (110 degrees F)
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 egg
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup chopped ham
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 (4 ounce) jar diced pimento peppers, drained
½ cup black olives, drained and chopped

Steps:

  • In a small mixing bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the yeast mixture with the flour, egg, butter, sugar and salt; mix well. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead until smooth, about 8 minutes.
  • Lightly oil a large mixing, place the dough in the bowl, and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Combine the ham, cheese, pimento, and olive in a medium mixing bowl; set aside.
  • Deflate the dough, and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Roll or pat the dough into a 10x14 inch rectangle. Make parallel cuts 3/4 inch wide and 2 inches long on the two long edges of the rectangle. Evenly spread the filling mixture over the center of the rectangle. Fold the short ends of the rectangle over the filling. Starting from one of these ends, alternately stretch strips from the two sides across the filling so that the strips overlap diagonally. Transfer the loaf to a lightly greased baking sheet, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise until doubled in volume, about 40 minutes.
  • Bake at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 20 to 30 minutes, or until golden brown.
