- 2cups warm water
- 1 1⁄2 - 2tablespoons yeast
- 6cups bread flour
- 1⁄4cup sugar
- 2 1⁄4teaspoons salt
- 1⁄4cup butter
DIRECTIONS
- Dissolve yeast in warm water. Add remaining ingredients and mix with a dough hook about 10 minutes until the dough no longer sticks to the sides of the bowl. Dough should be soft and pliable. Let dough rest a few minutes then divide into 1-lb portions. Roll the portions into logs. cut each log into 5 equal pieces.
- Flatten dough piece with your hand until about 1/8 inch. Place cheese in the middle of the dough and then pull dough up from the sides to cover filling. Pinch closed very carefully. Place zombies pinched side down on parchment paper or a greased cookie sheet pan. If desired, brush tops of the zombies with egg wash. Let rise until almost doubled in size. Bake @350 degrees until the top is brown, 15-20 minutes.
- Fillings:
- If traditional filling is desired, use about 2 oz of cheese per zombie (2 slices of American cheese).
- Optional:
- You can use a variety of different fillings, pepperoni, pizza sauce and cheese, ham and cheese, sausage, green chilies, ground beef, sloppy joes, scrambled eggs, veggies, etc.
