My Homebaked Ensaymada

I have been craving Filipino bread in a while. I've been missing that sweet, smooth, and tasty kind of bread we have in the Philippines. So I looked around online to search for a recipe for "Ensaymada".

Ensaymada is one of the popular breads in the Philippines preferred by most Filipinos besides pan de sal because of its sweet and cheesy flavor. It is a sweet bread filled with sweet butter and brushed with buttered sugar and sprinkled with grated cheese.

I haven't tried baking any kind of bread before, so this is sort of an experimental baking for me, since it will be my first time. I was expecting for the worse while baking because anything can turn out wrong since I don't have any experience in baking. But I still took all the courage I have just so I can taste a bread from home and hoped for the best.

After doing all the mixing,kneading,waiting, and baking, I have now the fruit of my labor or rather "bread" of my labor,lol! And to my surprise it came out pretty good for a first timer,lol!It cane out soft and tasty.It may not be as good as Goldilocks ensaymada but it wasn't that bad either. My husband and lids like it so I guess it is consummable,lol. Anyway, I am satisfied with my first homebaked bread. I know I still have a lot of learning to do in baking, in which I am now excited to study on it and experiment more, so I can perfect it.

So here's the photo of my first ever homebaked bread, the "Ensaymada".
