Using the boiling before baking technique, this Cheese and Garlic Stuffed Bread recipe yields four loaves which are not only delicious but you can have them fresh at any time. Wondering how? They can be stored in the freezer for at most 2 months and baked whenever you feel like having some bread. How awesome is that!
Why make your own bread at home?
We all know that store bought bread gets stale after some days and does not taste the same. Making your own bread and freezing the dough, gives you the luxury of having freshly baked bread at anytime, without the need for always having to make trips to your favorite bakery.
Inside, the soft, fluffy loaf is a creamy cheese and garlic filling.
Rolling the dough: After the dough is rolled once over the cheese mixture, it is important to seal the edges in order to lock in the cheese. Continue rolling and when you are done, seal the seams before freezing. (watch video for details)
Enjoy as it is or with your favorite tea.

I made a comment on FoodTalk Plus, but didn’t see any comments since 2022. I have a question on this recipe. I can’t wait to make it and thanks for sharing! Do you use quick rise yeast for this recipe? That is what I use for my other bread baking but need to be sure. Also, can you change up the filling? I thought ham and cheese would be a perfect marriage! Lol
I apologize for replying ages later. Yes you can use instant yeast and I am definitely going to try the ham and cheese option. it is a perfect marriage.lol
