A favorite recipe for cheesy jalapeño rolls that are airy and delicious! These rolls are a perfect side to chili, jambalaya, or any BBQ dish. Adapted from Paul Prudhomme, these rolls are easy to make and sure to impress.
1: Combine all of your dry ingredients (flour, cheese, jalapeno, all but 1 Tbsp. of sugar, and salt), and mix well.
2: Combine the dry yeast with the warm water and 1 Tbsp. sugar, stir to dissolve, and let rest for 3-10 minutes until the yeast activates.
3: Add half of the yeast and water mixture to the flour and knead until incorporated, then add the rest of the liquid and knead until totally smooth (about 10 minutes).
4: Cover the dough and allow it to rise for 1 hour.
5: Portion your dough into round balls and place them in a buttered 10.5" cast iron skillet. Cover and let rest in a warm place for another hour until they have doubled in size.
6: Bake at 325°F for 1 hour. Allow to rest for 10 minutes before serving.
