Cheese Bread FF Style
1/2 cups milk
1/2 cups hot water
1 tbsp butter or bacon fat or any shortening
1 tbsp sugar
3 cups flour
1 1/4 tsp salt
3/4 cups grated cheese — (3/4 to 1 1/2)
1 1/2 tsp yeast
* (pre-grated supermarket cheddar works great, but if you want something celestial, try a hard smoked cheese, such as provolone or cheddar)
Put all ingredients in a bread machine, and put through the regular cycle
(light crust if you have the option).
When I make it outside the machine, I double it to make two loaves. Make it
like any standard dough through the first rising; punch down, shape and
place in two greased loaf pans. Let rise again. Bake at 425F for 15 mins;
then at 375 for about 30 mins more until done. Cool out of pans on a wire
rack.
