Ingredients

Scale

3 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp active dry yeast
1 cup warm water (110°F/43°C)
2 tbsp olive oil
1 cup caramelized onions
1 ½ cups shredded cheese (mozzarella and cheddar blend)
1 tsp salt

Instructions

In a large bowl, combine warm water and yeast; let sit until foamy (about 5 minutes). Add olive oil and salt.
Gradually mix in all-purpose flour until a sticky dough forms; use hands or a wooden spoon to combine.
Transfer dough to a floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place dough in an oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise in a warm spot until doubled in size (about 1 hour).
Once risen, gently fold in caramelized onions and shredded cheese.
Shape the dough into a loaf or rolls; place on parchment-lined baking sheet. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and bake for about 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
