Onion-Cheddar Bread

2 1/2 cups all-purpose or bread flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1/3 cup warm water
1/2 cup orange juice
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons butter
1 envelope dry onion soup mix
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1. Preheat the oven to 375*F.
2. In a medium bowl, combine flour and whole wheat flour; set aside.
3. In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in 1/3 cup warm water. Add orange juice, 1/2 cup water, butter, dry onion soup mix, sugar, and salt. Add 2 cups of the flour mixture and mix until smooth. Stir in the remaining flour mixture and mix until a soft dough is formed.
4. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured board, then knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
5. Punch down the dough, then turn onto a lightly floured board. Press into 10 x 8-inch rectangle, top with 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, and roll up, starting at the narrow edge; pinch the ends to seal. Place in a loaf pan with the seam side down. Brush with melted butter, then top with 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese. Let rise until doubled in size, about 40 minutes.
6. Preheat the oven to 375*F.
7. Bake for 45 minutes or until done. Remove to a wire rack and cool completely before slicing.

Makes 1 loaf.
