Pull Apart Cheddar Bacon Ranch Bread image

I call this a man's 'dessert'. Great for a football party or any gathering of men...if they can get it away from the women.

Time 35m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 unsliced loaf sourdough bread, round loaf
8 -12 ounces cheddar cheese, thinly sliced
3 ounces bacon bits (real bacon bits)
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 tablespoon dry ranch dressing mix
fresh ground pepper (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven 350 degrees.
  • Using a sharp bread knife, cut the bread into about 1 inch slices from side to side going in both directions, repeating until entire loaf is cut. Do not cut through the bottom crust. It should look something like an onion mum.
  • Place slices of cheese inbetween slits. Sprinkle bacon bits on bread, making sure to tuck most between cuts.
  • Mix together butter and dry Ranch dressing mix. Pour over bread. If desired, dust with a couple of twists of freshly ground pepper.
  • Wrap in foil the entire loaf in foil, folding to seal. Place on a baking sheet; bake for 15 minutes. Unwrap. Bake for an additional 10 minutes or until cheese is melted.
