Description
Make space for Yeast Camembert Bread, it’s rich, cheesy, and oddly perfect with jam
Ingredients
- 4 cups bread flour
- ½ tsp salt
- 10 g quick-rise yeast
- 1 tsp sugar
- 2 cups lukewarm water
- 1 tbsp oil
- 2 x 125 g Camembert wheels
Instructions
- In a big bowl, mix the flour and salt.
- In a separate cup, stir the yeast, sugar, and 1 cup of lukewarm water.
- Let it sit for a few minutes until it’s nice and foamy.
- Pour the foamy yeast mix into the center of the flour.
- Stir with a wooden spoon, slowly adding the rest of the water until the dough is soft and a bit sticky, but still kneadable.
- Knead the dough for about 4–5 minutes.
- Cover with a clean towel and leave it in a warm spot to rise for around 30 minutes.
- You can bake this in the oven or on the BBQ. The steps stay the same either way.
- If using the BBQ, grab a small pot with a lid.
- For the oven, a heatproof bowl works great.
- Once the dough has doubled in size, punch it down and shape it into a flat circle.
- Stack the two Camembert wheels on top of each other in the center of the dough.
- Fold the dough over the cheese, completely sealing it.
- Pinch the seams tight; this keeps the cheese from leaking out while baking.
- Butter the inside of your pot or bowl generously.
- Place the dough in it, seam-side down, and let it rise again for 20 minutes.
Bake:
- Oven: Bake at 180°C / 350°F for 45 minutes.
- BBQ: Place the pot on moderate heat with a few coals on top of the lid. Bake for about 45 minutes.
- (Optional but delicious: Once baked, sprinkle grated cheese on top and pop it back in the oven or BBQ just until it melts.)
- Let the bread cool slightly, then slice it up. Serve with fig or apricot jam for that sweet-and-savory hit.
