This Easy Ube Pandesal with Cheese filling is made with ube powder. They stay soft, pillowy and moist for days after baking.

Pandesal made with Ube and with cheese filling.

With the rise to the worldwide fame of our humble ube or purple yam, came a lot of new food ideas and creations starring this pretty purple/violet root crop. From ube halaya, ice cream, cakes, cheesecake, and other delicacies, there seems to be no limit as to what you can make with ube.

These days, ube cheese pandesal seems to take the spotlight in the local scene.  A variation of the traditional Filipino breakfast bread, Pandesal.  And why not, we Filipinos love our pandesal, be it for breakfast or afternoon snack. And Ube Pandesal with melty cheese filling is perfect for both.

  • Ube Pandesal with Cheese

Ube Powder VS. Fresh Ube

This recipe uses ube powder that is now widely available in baking supply shops or even online. Alternatively, purple yam jam (ube halaya) can also be used. Just reduce the sugar as it usually contains sweetener already. Of course, fresh ube can also be used. It has to be boiled and then mashed. I would say to use about half a cup to ¾ cup of ube jam for this recipe.

The ube powder is first rehydrated with hot water that will have a consistency similar to ube halaya. This will be added in making the dough. It will create a sticky dough. But because of the high water absorption of the ube powder, the resulting bread will be soft and moist even for several days after it is baked.

I get a lot of comment from others who used ube powder but theirs turned watery when hot water was added instead of absorbing the liquids. I think this is not the real ube powder starch but is used for flavoring only. If this is what you have, then I recommend using our regular Pandesal recipe and just add the ube powder flavor to the dough, dissolved in little water.

Pandesal made with purple yam

Notes on this Ube Pandesal:

  • This makes a very sticky dough.  As you knead the dough the stickiness will lessen. To handle it better instead of adding more flour, grease your hands with oil so the dough will not stick. Do the same to the surface where you will knead.
  • I used instant yeast for this recipe. Using dry active yeast takes longer time for the dough to rise than using instant yeast.
  • If you do not have the time, prepare the dough the night before. You can refrigerate it after kneading or once they are filled and formed. Cover with plastic wrap and store it in the refrigerator overnight. Before using it, allow it to sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before going on the next step. I recommend using dry-active yeast if you are going this route.
  • I used oil instead of butter for this recipe. Butter gives bread richer flavor but since this is already a flavored bread so I opted for oil which makes it softer and stays soft longer.

Ingredients
 

  • ¼ cup ube powder
  • ¾ cup hot water -only if using ube powder
  • 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ teaspoon instant yeast
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 cup warm milk
  • 2 tablespoon vegetable oil - plus more for greasing
  • 1 medium egg
  • 1 tablespoon liquid ube extract (optional)
  • 1 block quick melt cheese (165g) - cut into 12 cubes
  • 4 tablespoons breadcrumbs - for coating

Instructions
 

  • Place ube powder in a bowl. Pour in hot water and stir until completely rehydrated.
  • In a large bowl, add flour, sugar, and salt. Mix to combine.
  • Pour in warm milk and oil and add the egg and mix. Add the yeast and mix again.
  • Add the rehydrated ube and ube extract (if using) and mix well until well combined. It will be very heavy and sticky. Use your hand greased with oil if you have to or use a stand mixer.
  • Tip the dough on a flat surface. Rub oil to both hands and knead for 7-10 minutes or until soft and smooth. Do the windowpane test to check. (SEE NOTE )
  • Form the dough into a ball and lightly coat with oil. Place it back the large bowl and cover with a kitchen towel or plastic wrap and place it in a warm area and let it rise until it almost doubled in size. Depending on how warm it is, could take 30 minutes to an hour or more.
  • Punch down the dough and divide it into 2 equal parts using a knife or dough slicer. Shape a part into a rectangle and then divide it into 6 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball. Repeat the same with the other half.
  • Flatten a ball and place a cube of cheese at the center. Fold the sides of the dough enclosing the cheese cube inside. Form it again into a ball and roll it in breadcrumbs, completely covering all sides.
  • Arrange the pieces on a baking sheet living some gaps in between (at least an inch). Leave them to rise for another 30 minutes. While waiting, preheat oven 340° F /170°C. Bake the Ube Pandesal for 20 minutes or until slightly browned. Remove from oven and serve while hot!

Notes

NOTE 1 : This makes a very sticky dough. To handle it better, grease your hands with oil so the dough will not stick. Do the same to the surface where you will knead.
NOTE 2 : The windowpane test is one of the best ways to tell if the dough has been kneaded sufficiently. All you have to do take a small piece of dough, flatten it and slowly stretch it with your thumbs and fingers. If it breaks or tears immediately then it needs more kneading. If it stretches into a thin membrane without breaking where you can see the light through when you hold it up against it, then it's good!

    Hi there! I tried your recipe, and the taste and texture of the bread turned out perfect. The only issue I encountered was that the quickmelt cheese oozed out of the bread after baking it in the oven. Do you think freezing the cheese before baking would prevent it from oozing out?

      If it is really dehydrated Ube powder then no need as it will expand as the starch absorbs water. But if it only food coloring with ube flavor then yes, you might need to add flour.

      And also the consistency and texture is very sticky like an ube jam which I also used for this recipe. And I kneaded it as directed. I still baked it just to see how it comes out, and the middle of the dough is wet and pasty. I even added 10 more minutes of bake time.

      Hi Angel, have you tested your yeast to see if it is still active? If it is not the yeast, could you have added too much jam? If it is pure jam it should not be that sticky actually.

      I will not recommend using purely whole wheat flour for this recipe as it will make it too dense, but if you are experienced in baking with whole wheat flour and know what to expect then go ahead. But you can replace 1 1/2 cup APF with whole wheat flour keeping the rest the same.

    How long can I store the dough in the fridge? I’d like to store it after
    They’re shaped and filled in, is it possible to keep them in the fridge for 4-5 days and then bake them?

    Reply
    • Bebs says

      June 25, 2021 at 4:40 pm

      If you keep them in the fridge that long they will go on rising and then deflate. You can freeze right after shaping them. When you are ready to bake them take them out and cover them with a damp kitchen towel and let them thaw and rise in a warm area before baking.

      Hi Anele, most of the yeast(Hefe) in Germany are instant dry yeast and you just add them directly to the flour. I used different brands and they mostly worked the same. My fave to use is the fresh yeast in cubes, I miss using it. As for flour (Mehl) Typ 405 has a finer texture that you can use for pie crust and cakes. Typ 550 is the all-purpose flour and Typ 812 is like the bread flour. So for this you can use 550 or 812 or mix of both.

    I followed this recipe last night, and I must say, I've already tried so many recipes and this recipe has been the best one yet. Really fluffy and soft!
    Just curious, have you tried using one packet (2 1/4 tsp) of rapid rise yeast? If so, what was the result? 🙂

    Reply
    • Bebs says

      May 21, 2021 at 1:54 pm

      A packet is normally good for 500 grams of flour and this has almost that so it should not be much of a difference. More yeast means a shorter time to rise and lesser means longer rising but greater flavor. But sometime, adding more can cause your dough to expand too fast before gluten is ready so it might collapse during baking.

    I tried this the first time and failed bec I think my ube powder wasn't the same as yours so I adjusted in my 2nd try. I used 1 cup of the ube powder I have and around 1/4-1/3 c of water. The problem I encountered this time was it didn't rise. The ube powder I have was a little salty so I think that was a big factor affecting the yeast so I added yeast and knead again. And it rose! Yey! We all enjoyed the ube cheese pandesal! Thanks for this recipe. 🙂

    Hello, I baked this ube pandesal last night and it was perfect! I used the regular pandesal recipe and add the rehydrated ube powder and ube extract at the end. Also, I beat the egg before combining it with the rest of the ingredients. Thanks for sharing this recipe 🙂

      It really depends, but normally at medium speed about 10 minutes. Just do the windowpane test to check.

      Hi Marissa, the bread machine is pre-programmed when you use the dough function, just follow that.

    Hello I used your pandesal recipe and it turns out good 👍 thank you for sharing! I just wish I had known it before.i used other recipes and it didn't came out good.By the way is it okay to just add ube flavoring only without adding ube powder or halaya?

      Hi Glenda, if you will use ube flavoring then use my plain pandesal recipe and add it to the dough instead.

    Can you use bread flour for this recipe? If so, do the measurements change?

      I actually recommend it if you have it. Use 50/50 bread flour/APF.

      I suggest using active dry yeast and let it rise overnight in the fridge.

    Can I use ube McCormick flavouring instead of powder? And how much should I use?

      Hi Charlotte, start with 1/2 teaspoon first and see if you need to add more. Skip the additional water for the ube powder hydration. I would actually suggest that you use my pandesal recipe and just add the ube liquid flavor to the liquids.

    Thanks for sharing this recipe! It really is soft and it stayed that way for 3 days! It’s my first time to try ube cheese pandesal and I liked how simple the recipe and instructions are. I used my homemade ube halaya for the dough as well as filling and it is so good! 👌🏼

    Wow! The first time I tried to make this ube pandesal recipe, it was perfect. I couldn’t believe I can do it, and even my husband love it so much, now I am making another batch today, it’s literally in the microwave fir first proofing, because there are 2 pieces left. Your pandesal recipes are the best one I’ve ever tried. Thank you!

    Hi, what kind of oven do you use? Mine is a convection oven and i tried baking this at 170 C for 20 minutes and it ended up hard.

      Yes, a convection oven will give you a higher temperature than when using a conventional oven. Lower the temperature to 150°C for 15 to 20 minutes.
