Ingredients

• 1 lb (450g) store-bought bread dough
• 1 cup (4 oz) shredded mozzarella cheese
• ½ cup (2 oz) crumbled feta cheese
• ¼ cup (60ml) tomato sauce
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ½ teaspoon black pepper
• 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
• Additional herbs for garnish (optional)

How to Make Cheesy Stuffed Bread Buns

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the mozzarella cheese, feta cheese, tomato sauce, parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create the filling.
3. On a lightly floured surface, divide the bread dough into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball, then flatten it into a small disc.
4. Place a generous tablespoon of the cheese filling in the center of each disc. Carefully fold the edges of the dough over the filling, pinching to seal tightly.
5. Place the stuffed buns seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with the beaten egg to give them a golden finish.
6. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the buns are golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.
7. Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before garnishing with additional herbs, if desired. Serve warm.

Tips for the Best Results

• Ensure your bread dough is at room temperature for easier handling.
• Experiment with different cheese combinations, such as cheddar or pepper jack.
• Make sure to pinch the dough tightly to avoid any cheese oozing out during baking.
• Let the buns cool slightly before serving to prevent burns from the hot filling.

Easy Variations

• Add cooked spinach for a cheesy spinach variant.
• Incorporate cooked sausage or pepperoni for a meaty option.
• Swap the tomato sauce for pesto for an herbaceous twist.
• Try a blend of different cheeses for varied flavor profiles.

What to Serve With It

• A side of marinara sauce for dipping.
• Fresh salad to balance the richness of the buns.
• Crunchy vegetable sticks for added texture.
• A selection of olives or pickles for a tangy contrast.
