When we lived in TX one of our favorite things to do as a family was ride our bikes to the park on Saturdays and on our way grab these czech kolaches from the local donut store.  Seriously when we left it was one of the things I missed the most.  Now I can’ t recreate the amazing winter weather or those Saturday bike rides, but I CAN recreate the kolaches!

They start out with a sweet yeast dough, actually you could use the same dough to make donuts, OR use a doughnut recipe instead.  Then you wrap the dough around any filling you want! the classic we always enjoyed was sausage and cheese, ham and cheese, or turkey and swiss.  So that’s what I’ve recreated today.

I love finding new sausage flavors at the store to try, the kids like the plain beef sausage with cheese, I love the cheddar and jalapeno pork sausage, but it’s a little too spicy for the kids.  And of course the number one most popular is the lunch meat with cheese options.

  • add the flour 3 cups at a time, mixing well between,
