If you really want to step up your cheese game, pull the loaf out of the oven after about 35 minutes and add some grated parmesan (the real stuff, not from the can, please) over the top. Into a pre-heated 350 degree oven for around 45 minutes. Hey, I didn’t pass this off as a healthy game day recipe!
Once stuffed, I add a VERY healthy drizzle of garlic butter over the top of the loaf, making sure it’s getting down between the bread slices. To shorten the cooking time, you can start the bacon ball in a microwave for 2-3 minutes before placing in the oven. I like to cook my bacon ball in a toaster oven for easier cleanup. Once you have your cheese stuffed, stuff some sliced pepperoni (partially cooked to remove some of the grease) down in there too, followed by some sliced green onion. Place the bacon ball on a wire rack over a foil-lined tray in an oven preheated to 350 degrees F. You want to tuck those cheese slices down into the bread (don’t be bashful!). I used thinly sliced swiss and cheddar here. The cheese – since variety is the spice of life, don’t be afraid to mix it up a bit. Wrap a slice of bacon around each roll and secure with a toothpick. The loaf should look like a checkerboard when you’re done. This cheese bread is homemade bread swirled with real cheese. These are as easy to make as they are fun to eat Roll slices of bread flat (per the recipe below). Once you’ve reached the end of the loaf, turn it 90 degrees, and make those 1″ slices again. When slicing the loaf, you only want to cut through about 80% of the way through (again, you want the bread to stay together and maintain its shape). I opted for a farmhouse boule, but a ciabatta loaf would work great here too (again, so many great options!).īe sure to click on my YouTube video below and watch the process unfold! And please take the time to like the video and subscribe to my YouTube channel if you enjoy my content. Shape the bread: Punch down the dough to release the air. You want the loaf to maintain its shape after it’s sliced. You want something fairly firm since you’re going to be slicing this loaf up in both directions. The first successful key to this is to pick the right bread. Use your imagination! There are so many ingredients and flavor profiles to try. Just the name alone has me sitting on the couch ready to watch the big game.Īnd hey, don’t limit yourself to what I’ve done here.
