Categories     Bread     Yeast Bread Recipes     White Bread Recipes

Time 2h20m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups warm water (100 degrees F/40 degrees C)
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 tablespoon active dry yeast
1 tablespoon salt
4 cups bread flour, or as needed
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
¼ cup milk
1 tablespoon dried basil

Steps:

  • Mix warm water with sugar in a large mixing bowl until the sugar has dissolved. Sprinkle yeast over the surface of the water, and let stand until the yeast begins to form a creamy layer on the water. Stir the yeast into the water. Stir in salt, and 1 cup of bread flour, and beat the flour in to form a loose batter. Stir in 1 more cup of flour, and mix in the mozzarella cheese, milk, and basil. Mix in the remaining 2 cups of flour in 1/2-cup additions.
  • Turn the dough out onto a well-floured work surface, and knead until the dough is thoroughly mixed, but still sticky, 5 to 8 minutes. Add flour into the dough as you knead, if necessary. Form the dough into a ball, and place into an oiled bowl. Turn the dough over in the bowl to oil the surface of the dough, and cover with a cloth. Allow to rise until double, about 1 hour.
  • With your fist, press firmly on the dough to deflate the large bubbles. Turn the dough out onto a well-floured work surface, and knead the dough just long enough to eliminate the remaining bubbles in the dough, about 1 minute. Cut the dough into 2 equal pieces, and form each half into a round ball. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray, and place the balls onto the baking sheet. With a sharp knife, slash an X into the top of each loaf. Cover the loaves with a towel, and let rise until doubled, about 25 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Bake the loaves until browned, about 25 minutes. To serve, cut each loaf into 8 wedges.

Tips:

  • To ensure the fritters are crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside, use a combination of mozzarella and parmesan cheese. The mozzarella will melt and become gooey, while the parmesan will add a crispy texture.
  • For a lighter fritter, use sourdough bread instead of all-purpose flour. Sourdough is a fermented bread, which means it is easier to digest and has a slightly sour flavor.
  • If you don't have fresh basil on hand, you can use dried basil. However, fresh basil will give the fritters a more vibrant flavor.
  • Serve the fritters immediately with your favorite dipping sauce. Marinara sauce, pesto, or a simple olive oil and balsamic vinegar dressing are all great options.

Bills mozzarella and basil fritters are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They are perfect for parties or gatherings, and they can also be served as a main course with a side salad. The fritters are crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside, and they are filled with melted mozzarella cheese and fresh basil. They are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
