Ingredients

• 3.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Instant yeast
• 2 tablespoons Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1.5 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
• 1.25 cups Warm milk
• 4 tablespoons Butter (melted)
• 1 Egg
• 2 tablespoons Sesame seeds (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt. Mix well to distribute the dry ingredients evenly.

Step 2

Add the shredded cheddar cheese to the dry mixture and stir to coat the cheese with flour.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the warm milk and melted butter. Make sure the milk is warm to the touch but not hot to avoid killing the yeast.

Step 4

Pour the milk and butter mixture into the dry ingredients, followed by the egg. Stir thoroughly using a wooden spoon or spatula until the dough comes together and looks shaggy. It will be slightly sticky, but this is normal.

Step 5

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rise in a warm spot for 1.5 to 2 hours, or until it has doubled in size.

Step 6

Once the dough has risen, lightly flour your hands and a work surface. Divide the dough into 8 equal portions and shape each into a smooth ball.

Step 7

Place the dough balls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them at least 2 inches apart to allow for spreading. Gently flatten each ball slightly with the palm of your hand.

Step 8

Cover the buns loosely with a clean kitchen towel and let them rise again for about 30 minutes, or until they puff up slightly.

Step 9

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). If using sesame seeds, lightly brush the tops of the buns with milk or an egg wash (1 egg mixed with 1 tablespoon of water) and sprinkle the seeds on top.

Step 10

Bake the buns in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and they sound hollow when tapped.

Step 11

Remove the buns from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature with your favorite burger patties and toppings.
