Rosemary and Gruyere Cheese Bread



I love this artisan bread recipe!  I use it ALL the time, but this time I just wanted something a little different.  I may never go back!

Rosemary and Gruyere Cheese Bread
(1 loaf)

3 cups flour
2 1/4 t yeast
1 1/2 t salt
1/2 cup shredded Gruyere Cheese
1 T fresh chopped rosemary
1 T extra virgin olive oil
1 1/2 cups water

Mix all ingredient EXCEPT water and oil together in a large bowl.  Add water and oil.  Stir until the dough forms a shaggy ball and all the flour is incorporated.  Cover and let sit at room temperature for at least 4 hours.  Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and fold over itself twice.  Form into a ball, cover and let sit for 30 minutes.  While the bread is sitting, heat oven to 450.  Place an oven proof, lidded pan (like a Le Creuset or Dutch oven) in the oven while it is heating up.  Once the oven and the pan are hot, place the dough seam side up into the hot pan.  Cover with the lid and bake for 25 minutes.  Remove the lid and bake for 5-10 minutes more or until desired doneness.

  1. Super popular with my family. Have substituted other cheeses, parmesan and gouda and still tasted great. Thank you
