Cheddar Jalapeno Pull Apart Bread: Warm crispy bread studded with smoky bacon, gooey cheese, and spicy jalapenos. The perfect party appetizer.

Hi my name is Krystle, and I LOVE bread! Whether we are talking sandwiches, breadsticks, or even flatbread, I can never get enough carbs.

I’ve seen several pull apart bread recipes floating around Pinterest. They look really complex, but it couldn’t be easier as long as you have a good sharp knife.

I stuffed mine with the perfect combination of salt, smoke, and spice!

It would make an easy party appetizer.

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 F.
Use a serrated knife to slice each loaf into 2" slices. However, do NOT cut all the way through.
Use the serrated knife to slice in the opposite direction.
Line a flat fan with aluminum foil. Spray with non stick cooking spray. Place sliced loaf on top of foil and stuff with cheese.
Sprinkle jalapenos and bacon over the top of the bread.
Melt butter. Stir in garlic, cumin, salt, and pepper.
Brush bread with butter using a pastry brush. No pastry brush? No problem? Just drizzle using a spoon.

Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
Serve with spicy cheese dip if desired.

Krystle,
These look really yummy. I’m having a family get together and a girls night out in Sept so I’m glad I found this post as I think some of them will be great to serve.
Found you at the SITS Sharefest. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
