- 1 1⁄4 cups water
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 3 3⁄4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
- 3⁄4 cup freshly grated asiago cheese
- 1⁄4 cup nonfat dry milk powder

directions
- Dough: Place the dough ingredients into the pan of your bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Program for dough or manual, and press Start. At the end of the cycle, turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface. Cover it with a clean towel, and let it rest for 10 minutes.
- Filling: Combine all of the filling ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Assembly and Baking: Lightly oil a 9 inch cake or 10 inch deep dish pie pan. Note: a dark-colored pan will produce bread with a crispier bottom than a light-colored, reflective pan. Divide the dough into 14 pieces and shape each into a ball. Dip each ball in the filling mixture, and lay them into the pan. Pour any remaining filling evenly over the dough.
- Cover the pan with greased plastic wrap, and let the dough rise for 30 minutes. Bake the bread in a preheated 400°F oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until it's golden brown. Remove it from the oven, and allow it to cool for 10 minutes before serving.

So very easy in the bread machine and then shape and bake. Love the unusual flavor the cheese gives and the interior is light and fluffy. Only warning I'd give is watch closely as the brown really fast with all that oil and next time I'll stand by with foil to cover the last few minutes. That said, no trouble with the oven and they where a hit with everyone.

This made a very tasty loaf of bread - love the garlic & cheese flavor. However, it made a disaster in my kitchen. I followed the directions exactly as far as amounts, pan size, etc. But 15 minutes into the baking time, my kitchen was filling with smoke. I opened the oven to find a smoking pool of oil on the oven floor. Apparently the oil started running off of the top of the bread. I don't know what I could have done wrong, or how to fix this except to use a larger pan.
