GOLDEN CHEESY BREAD

Steps:

• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the water, butter, all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, sugar, dry milk, garlic powder, oregano, salt, onion powder and yeast. Mix until the ingredients come together and form a rough dough. Switch to the dough hook and knead on low speed for about 7 minutes, or until the dough is soft and smooth. The dough will be tacky, that's fine. Spray a large bowl with cooking spray. Add the dough to the bowl, turning to coat, then cover with plastic wrap. Let the dough rise for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or until very puffy. Remove the dough from the bowl to a lightly greased work surface and press gently to deflate. Divide the dough into about 64 small pieces of roughly the same size. Spray a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray. Line the bottom with parchment paper and spray the parchment with cooking spray too. Put 16 pieces of dough into the bottom of the prepared pan. Distribute 1/3 cup of the shredded cheese over the dough pieces then brush with some of the melted butter. Repeat until completed. When you finish the final layer, brush the dough with the butter, but don't sprinkle with the final 1/3 cup of cheese. Cover the pan with plastic wrap, and let the bread rise for about 30 to 60 minutes, or until it's just barely risen above the rim of the pan. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 F. Bake for 35-40 minutes. If the top of the bread is browning too quickly, you can tent with aluminum foil. Remove the bread from the oven, and run a knife along the edges of the pan to loosen it. Let rest for 2 minutes, then turn the bread out of the pan onto a rimmed baking sheet. With the bread right side up, distribute the last 1/3 cup of cheese over the top. Return to the oven for about 2 minutes, or until the cheese starts to melt. Remove from the oven and serve warm.
