Ingredients
- 1½ cups warm water (When you put your finger in the water, it should feel like nothing. This is called blood temperature. 98.6°F or 37°C)
- 10 g (2 tsp) instant yeast
- 1 tsp sugar
- 4 cups flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 2-3 jalapeños thinly sliced (you can also chop some of the peppers finely which is what I did) The amount of jalapeños you add depends entirely on how spicy you like your food.
- 2 cups grated cheddar cheese

Instructions
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the water, sugar and yeast. Allow to stand for 5 minutes until foamy.
- Add the flour and salt then knead with the dough hook for 5 minutes.
- The dough will be slightly sticky but shouldn't be wet. If it is, add 1-2 tbsp flour and knead in.
- Knead in the jalapeños and cheese.
- Bring the dough together into a ball with your hands. Dust over 1-2 tbsp flour (you want it to be well covered).
- Cover the bowl with a damp kitchen towel and allow the dough to rise for 1 hour until doubled in size. Leaving the dough in a warm spot will aid the rising.
- When the dough has proved, turn it out onto a floured surface. Fold the edges into the center of the dough, pinching the seams together then place into a floured bowl, seam side up. Dust over more flour.
- Cover with the tea towel and allow to rise for another 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F. Place a pot (dutch oven) with a lid into the oven to preheat.
- Carefully remove the pot from the oven and remove the lid. Transfer the dough to the pot and cover with the lid.
- Place in the oven and allow to bake for 30 minutes.
- Remove the lid and bake for another 10-15 minutes until the bread is golden brown.
- Remove the bread from the oven and allow to cool on a wire rack for 20-30 minutes (or until it has cooled to room temperature) before slicing and serving.
