I wish every-time I plan something it immediately gets checked on my to-do list.
I’ve been meaning to bake along with my wonderful friend Lora aka Cake Duchess pretty much since she started the #TwelveLoaves.
But you know how it is, life gets in the way, other recipes get prettier pictures, the dateline is over.
If I keep rambling more this dateline is going to be over too. I mean, in a blink of an eye it’s going to be October and the monthly theme changes.
If you don’t know what #TwelveLoaves is let me explain : it’s a monthly bake along blog hop, started by my friend Lora and hosted along with Barbara at Creative Culinary and Jamie at Life’s a Feast. For September the theme was : cheese bread
When I saw her pull-apart cheese bread my mind immediately went to my pull-apart cheese bread which is one of the top 5 most viewed and shared recipe on the blog. Thank you <3
If you read my blog for a while then you probably know I’m no stranger when it comes to adding cheese to bread dough. Here are previous cheesy breads
Ricotta Rolls
Whole Wheat Roquefort and Toasted Walnuts Rolls
I’ve made these cottage cheese dinner rolls over the weekend and they were gone in no time.
The idea started from the butter buns recipe I shared last year but this time I wanted to add some cheese to them. My first thought was creamy mascarpone cheese but always forgot to pick it from the store. Since cottage cheese is always present in my fridge I thought why not?
So I did it. And everyone was happy.
They are soft, fluffy, slightly salty from the cheese with a buttery crust. Definitely will be making these over and over again.

You are one of the best bread bakers I know. Every time you come out with a recipe it’s gorgeous. This one is no exception!
Hmm. I’ve never had cottage cheese bread before but I love fresh bread so I’m sure it’s fantastic. It looks amazing in the photos!
I haven’t made these in years but I love them. Yours look so good, Roxana!
You always amaze me with your bread! I would have NEVER thought to put cottage cheese in rolls. Looks wonderful!
Stunning! Fantastic recipe and its must try! Cottage cheese is great addition and my family would love this!!!
Cheesy bread goodness ahoi! Roxanna, thank you for sharing your version as well. The signs are telling me that I gotta go and get into baking bread!
What a cool idea!! Cottage cheese?! These look perfect and amazing and delicious!
I am so making these wonderful looking cheesy rolls tomorrow!:) These look absolutely gorgeous, Roxana!!
Cottage cheese in a dinner roll?!! Never would have even thought about it! The rolls look perfect!
I love, love dinner rolls! These look perfect, Roxana!
Love how these amazing looking rolls were baked in the cast iron pan! Love the blackboard in the photos!
Is there really anything better than homemade rolls? These sound incredible! I have never tried a bread recipe that calls for cottage cheese. I have to give these a try! 🙂
Excellent !!
Qué bons ! tenen molt bona pinta.
Love these!!! And I love how you used a cast iron skillet! that’s how I make my rolls too!
That is just the recipe for me!, I recently inherited a cast iron pan and I’ve been making a lot of bread in it so this fits right in my routine 🙂 thanks!
Your rolls look so perfect, Roxana. What a nice contribution to the blog hop. Did you have trouble resisting eating more than just one of these rolls? I would have. 🙂
These dinner rolls look wholesome!
Love these perfectly round and gorgeous whole wheat loaves, Roxy. I bet they were so moist from the cottage cheese. Really happy you found some baking time to link up to Twelve Loaves-your breads are all incredible! xx
Aren´t rolls in a skillet a clever idea Roxana! They are just lovely and even healthy.
Those dinner rolls sound delicious! Bread and cheese…can’t go wrong with that. 🙂 Beautiful photos, Roxana!
These look and sound amazing!! I am awe of all of the breads you make – they all look so perfect!!! Great photos!!
Beautiful dinner rolls, you have one lucky family that enjoys your home baked goodies;-)
Love these photos, they are so vivid looking that I feel like I’m right there!
Your bread is always very impressive! I love your dinner rolls – aren’t they so cute?! You should totally start a bakery or bakery & cafe… I’d love to live near you and purchase bread for our meal!
I love the sound of these! And they look fantastic – I can never make my whole wheat breads and rolls to look that nice!
I made these for dinner tonight, and they were delicious. Light and fluffy. I did use a combo of whole wheat and regular flour, and I added a bit of honey to the first step. I will definitely make these again.
Sounds delicious! How much yeast is actually in one of those red envelopes? Am trying to replicate the recipe, but in Holland we don’t have Red Star. Usually, dried yeast comes in packages containing 7 grams. Love to hear from you!
Hi Mary,
One envelope of dry yeast weights 7 grams here as well.
Happy baking,
Roxana
Thanks so much! Will bake tomorrow 😉
These are amazing! I used about a cup of all purpose flour and the rest white wheat. Also added a couple tablespoons of brown sugar and about 1/4 cup honey because we like our wheat bread a little sweet. : ) Made them a little larger into “buns” and they made fabulous sandwich buns! This is my new favorite recipe!
What is Red Star package Yeast, we dont get this in India, so what should we do any substitute, or any yeast would do and how much please let me know iam thinking of making it thanks.
Hi Amjad,
Red Star Yeast is an american brand of yeast.
you can use your favorite brand instead. for every 4 cups of flour use 7 grams of active dry yeast
