Directions

  1. 1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Prepare a sheet pan with cooking spray.
  2. 2. In a two quart saucepan combine the water, butter, oregano, salt and pepper. Bring to a rolling boil, stirring until butter is melted. Remove from heat.
  3. 3. Add flour all at once, stir until a sticky dough that cllings together is formed. Beat in the eggs one at a time; continue to mix until dough is satiny smooth. Then mix in the cheese.
  4. 4. Spoon six mounds of dough onto the prepared sheet pan in a ring formation. Keep them close enough together so they touch each other.
  5. 5. Bake for 55 to 60 minutes or until golden brown.
  6. 6. Serve hot with sweet butter. For breakfast serve with jam or preserves.
