Serves/Makes: 8 | Ready In: 2-5 hrs
Ingredients:
***DOUGH***
2 cups bread flour
1 package rapid rise yeast
3/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup very warm water (120 to 130 degrees F)
1 tablespoon olive or vegetable oil
***FILLING***
2 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
1 cup diced fully-cooked ham
1 cup chopped frozen broccoli, thawed and drained
***TOPPING***
1 egg white, lightly beaten
Directions:
For Dough: In a large bowl, combine 1 cup flour, undissolved yeast and salt. Stir in water and oil. Stir in enough remaining flour to make soft dough.
Knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 4 to 6 minutes. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes.
For Filling: Roll dough into a 14- x 10-inch rectangle. Sprinkle evenly with cheese, ham and broccoli to within 1/2 inch of edges. Pat down lightly.
Beginning at long end, roll up tightly. Pinch seam and ends to seal. Taper ends by gently rolling back and forth to make a 16-inch roll.
Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil and grease lightly. Place loaf, seam side down, on foil. Cover and let rise in warm, draft-free place until almost doubled in size, about 15 to 20 minutes.
Brush loaf with egg white. With sharp knife, cut three 3-inch slits lengthwise down center of loaf, cutting to expose filling.
Bake at 400 degrees F for 30 to 35 minutes or until cheese is melted and crust is golden brown.
Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pan. Cut into servings. Serve warm.
