Jalapeno Burger Buns - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    3 loaves frozen bread (3 lb) or 3 lbs fresh bread dough
    2 tablespoons dry onion flakes
    4 cloves garlic, smashed
    1 fresh jalapeno peppers, finely chopped or (3 1/2 ounce) jar jalapenos, chopped
    1 (2 ounce) jar pimientos, chopped
    20 black olives, pitted and minced
    1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese, grated
Preparation
    Allow the frozen dough to rise overnight in the fridge (if using fresh let it rise to double it's size).
    Knead in your mixer for 5 minutes (by hand 10 minutes).
    Add all the ingredients to the dough and knead for a further 10 minutes.
    Cut into 14 equal pieces (more if you want smaller buns).
    The dough is a bit moist from all the ingredients in it so you may want to use a little flour on your hands to form the buns- do not use too much flour or the buns will not rise as easily Place buns on a baking sheet that has been sprayed with veggie oil.
    For best results bake the buns on a baking stone, covered with a piece of parchment and lightly sprayed with veggie oil Cover and place in a warm spot until the buns have doubled in size (I place them in the oven with the oven light on this gives a lovely warm, even heated, no breeze place where they can rise undisturbed).
    This step may take 1-2 hours dependinbg on your dough.
    Bake in 350F oven for apprx 20-25 minutes.
    Place on a rack to cool.
    They freeze well.
