Serves 30
Ready in 30 to 60 mins

Ingredients

  • 500g Allinson Premium White Very Strong Bread Flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp Billington's Golden Caster Sugar
  • 2 tbsp fresh rosemary, finely chopped plus a few extra sprigs
  • 7g easy bake yeast
  • 50g goat’s cheese cut into pieces
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 350ml water warmed
  • sea salt to sprinkle

How To Cook

  1. Put the flour into a large bowl. Add the salt, golden caster sugar, chopped rosemary, Easy Bake Yeast and goat’s cheese. Pour in the olive oil and warm water. Mix together to combine.
  2. Tip the dough onto a lightly floured surface and stretch and knead the dough for 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  3. Break the dough into 48 little pieces and shape each one into a perfect ball of dough. Grease a large baking sheet and 8 x 7.5cm (3 in) metal rings.
  4. Arrange six dough balls into each of the metal rings. Scatter with a few little sprigs of rosemary. Cover loosely with cling film and leave in a warm place until doubled in size. (This will take about 30 minutes).
  5. Preheat the oven to 220C/425F /Gas 7 (reduce for fan ovens). Remove the cling film from the dough and reduce the oven temperature to 200C/400F/Gas 6.
  6. Bake the dough balls for 20 minutes until golden and firm. Carefully lift off the metal ring and serve dough balls while warm, each garnished with a sprig of rosemary.
