Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the water, honey, and yeast. Stir and let sit for 5 minutes until foamy. Add in the flour and salt, and stir with a wooden spoon until mostly combined. Lightly flour your hands and knead the dough for 1 minute, bringing it into a ball. Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with a kitchen towel, and allow to rest for 15 minutes. Preheat the oven to 375F. Lightly grease an 8x8” pan with cooking spray or butter. Once slightly risen, place the dough on a floured surface and divide into 8 equal-sized pieces. Flatten each piece of dough into a oval shape. With one at a time, cut slit lengthwise down the center of the oval, stopping 3/4 of the way. Place ~1 tsp of the pesto at the end with no slits, and then sprinkle ~1 tbsp mozzarella cheese on top of the pesto. Roll into a log and place into the prepared pan. Repeat with remaining dough, pesto, and cheese. Lightly brush the tops of the rolls with the pesto egg wash, and then sprinkle with flaky salt if desired. Bake at 375F for 23-28 minutes or until golden brown. Enjoy!View original recipe
