Step 1: Make the Dough: In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt. Mix well.
Step 2: Add butter and warm milk gradually to the dry ingredients. Mix until a shaggy dough forms, then turn it out onto a lightly floured surface.
Step 3: Knead for 8–10 minutes until the dough is smooth, elastic, and no longer sticky.
Step 4: Let Rise: Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
Step 5: Shape: Gently punch down the risen dough and divide it into 12-16 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball, then flatten slightly and create a hole in the center to form a ring shape (like a donut).
Step 6: Arrange the shaped bread rings on a parchment-lined baking tray, leaving some space between them.
Step 7: Top: Brush the tops of the bread rings with a little milk or melted butter. Generously sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese mix over each ring, followed by the dried herbs.
Step 8: Bake: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the cheesy bread rings for 15–20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and melted.
Step 9: Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving warm. Enjoy!
