I wanted to eat something with a bit of heat and decided to make this Spicy Spiral Cheese Bread the other day. The weather has cooled considerably with the rain from the hurricanes in the Gulf Coast. Autumn weather is definitely in the air!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whenever I want inspiration on what to bake, I just scroll through the feed on my social media accounts. My baking group is always posting lovely creations that always make me hungry or motivate me to whip up a version of my own! For today’s post, it was the latter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This shape of this lovely bread reminds me of a giant cinnamon roll. However this bread is loaded with yummy cheese goodness and spices that kick it up a notch. In my family, we love our food hot AND spicy. Lol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6 ounces cubed and shredded Habanero Cheddar or your choice of spicy cheese (about 1\u00bd cups)

Topping<\/strong>

Putting Spicy Spiral Cheese Bread Together<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Making the dough<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Whisk the flour, sugar, yeast, red pepper flakes and salt. In a separate container, whisk the warm water, eggs, and melted butter. Next, add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients in the mixing bowl. Then, using a dough hook, knead on medium speed until the dough forms and no longer sticks to the sides of the bowl, 5 to 8 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Pat the dough into a ball and transfer to a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat the dough. Then, cover and let it rise in a warm place until the size doubles, 1 to 1\u00bd hours. Next, grease a 9-inch round cake pan; set aside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shaping Spicy Spiral Cheese Bread<\/h3>\n\n\n\n


When ready, transfer the dough to a work surface and press to deflate. Next, roll out the dough into a rectangle approximately 18″ x 12″.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then, distribute the cheese evenly over the surface of the dough, leaving about a 1-inch border around the edges.

Starting with the edge closest to you, roll the dough into a log, pinching the ends and edges to seal.

Next, roll the log back and forth, applying gentle pressure, until it reaches 28 to 30 inches in length.
Wind the long dough into a coil and tuck the end underneath. Firmly but gently, place the coiled dough in the prepared cake pan and cover loosely with a clean kitchen towel. Then, let it rise in a warm place for 1 to 1\u00bd hours, or until it has doubled in size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Baking<\/h3>\n\n\n\n


Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F. When the dough has risen, brush the top with the egg wash, then sprinkle with the red pepper flakes. Place the cake pan on a baking sheet.
