Recipe 104- Peinirli (small greek cheese bread)

This is just irresistible!

Ingredients

For the dough

5 cups flour

1 teaspoon dry yeast

1 cup warm water

1 teaspoon salt

For the topping 

500 gr yellow cheese shredded

2 tablespoons milk

2 tablespoons butter melted

In a bowl mix together the water with the yeast. Gradually add the flour and stir well. Add the salt. Knead the dough until smooth and cover with plastic wrap.

Let rise for 1 hour then knead again and let rise for another hour.

Preheat the oven to 415 F (210C). Divide the dough into 5 balls. Shape each ball like a thick canoe making a deeper place in the middle where you will put the topping.

Place each dough canoe on baking sheet and add the topping (you have to mix together the cheese, milk and butter).

Bake for 30 min and serve hot. 

You can add some more butter if you want.

Enjoy!
