Asiago Garlic Rolls


3 cups bread flour
1/4 cup milk powder
1 cup warm water
1 1/2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup Asiago cheese, grated
2 teaspoons yeast, active dry

Glaze:
2 small garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon salt

Stir the yeast and sugar into the warm water. Set aside for about 15 minutes or until frothy.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rest of the dry ingredients and mix well to combine. Add the frothy yeast mixture to the dry ingredients and stir well to combine. Turn onto a floured surface, knead until smooth and elastic - about 7 to 10 minutes. Form dough into a large ball and placed in a greased glass bowl, cover and let rise to double in size in a warm place (about 1 hour).

Turn dough onto a floured surface and punch it down to deflate. Divide into 12 equal portions. Shape each piece into a ball. Place in a prepared 12 cup muffin pan. Cover and let dough rise to double in size in a warm place (about 40-60 minutes).

Preheat oven to 350 F.

Sprinkle top with garlic and salt. Bake for 20-30 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven. Glaze with extra virgin olive oil.
