Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Rest time approx. 45 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour 35 minutes

Mix flour, yeast, and salt in a bowl. Add butter and 280 ml warm water. Knead everything with the dough hook of a mixer until you have a smooth dough. Cover the dough and let it rest in a warm place for 45 minutes. Line a springform pan with baking paper. Preheat the oven to 180°C (160°C fan-assisted oven). Knead the dough on a floured surface, then roll out into a rectangle (80 x 20 cm). Peel the garlic and press it into the butter using a garlic press, mix, season with salt, and pepper. Then spread the seasoned butter on the dough. Cut the dough widthwise into 16 thin strips. Top each strip with cheese and ham, leaving a slight overhang on one side. Loosely roll the strips. Place the ham and cheese rolls upright in the pan with the ham side facing up. Bake in the oven for 30 minutes. Remove the bread and let it cool slightly on a wire rack.
