A take on Turkish poğaça that swaps white flour for oat flour and packs in cheese and fresh dill. The dough doesn't stick to your hands, so shaping is easy, and the rolls stay soft inside. Good with tea or as a post-workout snack.
Method
Preheat the oven to 180–190 °C and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Put the oat flour, egg, yogurt and baking powder in a large bowl.
Add the grated mozzarella, chopped dill and salt.
Knead until you have a cohesive dough that no longer sticks to your hands.
Pinch off pieces, shape them into rolls and arrange them on the tray with space in between.
Brush the tops with egg yolk and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Bake for 20–30 minutes until golden, checking them toward the end.
