Dill and Cheese Bread/Buns

Friday is often soup day around here and I like serving different breads along with the soup. This dill and cheese bread is a nice change, if you like the flavor of dill. If you do not have a blender, don't worry. I don't think I would use a blender next time, I like to see the cheese and onions in my buns.

In a blender combine the following:

• 1/2 cup of very warm water
• 1 cup of creamed cottage cheese
• 2 tablespoons dried onion flakes
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 egg
• 2 tablespoons dill (I used 1 tbsp. dried)
• 1 tablespoon oil

Mix together in a bowl:

• 2 cups of flour
• 1/3 cup of wheat or oat bran
• 1 tablespoon quick rise yeast

1. Stir the dry ingredients until mixed through
2. Pour the blender ingredients over the dry ingredients
3. Knead for a few minutes adding a bit of flour at a time so the dough is not to sticky, about 1/4 cup in total is what I needed.
4. Put the dough in a greased bowl and let rise til double.
5. Make into buns or place it all into a greased casserole dish for a loaf of bread.
6. Again let rise until double, about an hour.
7. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 40 minutes for the loaf and 18-20 minutes for the buns.
