Indulge in these savory beef and cheddar swirl rolls, oozing with gooey cheese and topped with garlic herb butter. A comfort food lover's dream!
Ingredients
- • All-purpose flour: 3 1/2 cups
- • Instant yeast: 2 1/4 teaspoons
- • Granulated sugar: 2 tablespoons
- • Salt: 1 teaspoon
- • Warm milk (110°F/43°C): 1 cup
- • Unsalted butter, melted: 1/4 cup
- • Egg: 1 large
- • Ground beef: 1 pound
- • Onion, finely chopped: 1 medium
- • Sharp cheddar cheese, shredded: 2 cups
- • Worcestershire sauce: 1 tablespoon
- • Garlic powder: 1 teaspoon
- • Fresh parsley, chopped: 2 tablespoons
- • Garlic cloves, minced: 3
- • Butter: 1/4 cup
Instructions
- 1 Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- 2 In a large bowl, combine the flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. Add the warm milk, melted butter, and egg. Mix until a dough forms, then knead for about 8 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover and let it rise in a warm place for 45 minutes or until doubled in size.
- 3 While the dough is rising, prepare the filling. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef and onion until the beef is browned and the onion is caramelized, about 8 minutes. Stir in Worcestershire sauce and garlic powder. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
- 4 Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface into a large rectangle, approximately 14x10 inches. Evenly spread the beef mixture over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the beef.
- 5 Starting from a long side, roll the dough tightly into a log. Pinch the seam to seal and slice the roll into 12 equal pieces. Arrange the rolls on the prepared baking sheet, cut side up, leaving space between them.
- 6 Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
- 7 While the rolls are baking, melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in chopped parsley.
- 8 Brush the hot rolls with the garlic herb butter immediately after removing them from the oven. Serve warm and enjoy the indulgence.
Serving Suggestions
- • These Savory Beef and Cheddar Swirl Rolls are perfect as a standalone snack or side dish. Pair them with a robust tomato basil soup or a fresh garden salad for a complete meal. The rich flavors of the rolls complement a crisp, cold beer or a glass of bold red wine beautifully. For a brunch spread, consider serving them alongside a platter of mixed charcuterie and pickled vegetables.
Storage Tips
Store any leftover rolls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes or until warmed through. For a quick reheat, you can also microwave them for 20-30 seconds, though this may soften the texture slightly.
