Best 3 Cheese Prosciutto Bread Recipes

GARLIC CHEESE BREAD WITH PROSCIUTTO

Steps:

• Either make or purchase a 1.5 lb loaf of French or Italian bread (torpedo or batard shape).
• Slice along entire loaf without cutting all the way through the bottom crust.
• Cut the proscuitto into enough pieces to allow a piece per slice of bread.
• Mix the garlic into the cheese.
• Into each slice, slip one piece of ham and 1 to 2 tablespoons of cheese and garlic mixture.
• Line a baking sheet with a piece of foil 3 to 4 inches longer than the loaf.
• Crumple another sheet of foil to fit in the middle of the first sheet of foil to raise the middle of the loaf.
• Set the loaf on the crumpled foil so that the loaf is arched.
• Wrap the first sheet of foil around the loaf allowing the top of the loaf to be exposed and twist the ends of the foil to form a tight package.
• Sprinkle any remaining cheese mixture along the top of the loaf.
• Place in the center of a 350F oven and bake for 20 minutes or until the cheese is partially browned.
• Carefully remove the bottom sheet of foil and serve on a long platter or serve with the foil pulled away from the loaf for access.

GRILLED BREAD WITH PROSCIUTTO

Steps:

• Prepare a charcoal grill with medium-hot coals or turn a gas grill to medium-high heat.
• Grill the bread for 2 minutes, until golden on one side. Place the bread grilled side up on a platter and immediately rub the cut side of the garlic clove over the surface of the bread. For really garlicky fettunta, rub hard. Drizzle a tablespoon of olive oil over each slice of bread.
• Place the torn prosciutto over the grilled side of the bread and top with the grated mozzarella. Return the bread to the hot grill, cover the grill, and cook for 1 to 2 minutes-just long enough to melt the cheese and rewarm the toast. (Be sure the vent is open so the fire doesn't go out!) Drizzle with a little more olive oil, sprinkle with parsley, salt, and pepper, and serve hot.

PROSCIUTTO BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Unroll the French bread dough and sprinkle with the pepper. Cover with the prosciutto. Roll into a log and twist, pulling and shaping it into an 8-inch ring. Pinch the ends together.
• Place on the prepared baking sheet, brush with the oil and bake until golden, 20 minutes. Brush with more oil; bake 5 more minutes. Remove from the oven and brush with more oil before serving.
