Calories 220 kcal
- 3 cups all-purpose flour plus extra for kneading
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 tablespoon active dry yeast
- 1 cup warm water 110°F / 45°C
- 1 tablespoon olive oil plus extra for greasing the bowl
- 1 medium onion finely chopped
- 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese grated
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder optional
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter for sautéing onion
- 1 egg for egg wash – optional
Step 1: Prepare the Onion
Step 2: Activate the Yeast
Step 3: Make the Dough
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder (if using). Pour in the activated yeast mixture and olive oil. Stir until a rough dough forms, then knead on a floured surface for about 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Step 4: Add Cheese and Onion
Flatten the dough slightly, then knead in the cooled sautéed onions and grated cheddar cheese until evenly distributed. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
