There are few things as delicious as bread studded with melting cheese - and it's astonishing how many different forms that simple idea can take. From a bacon-and-cheese scroll and a Georgian khachapuri-style boat with an egg, to a four-ingredient pull-apart, a stuffed Turkish pide and a gooey mozzarella-and-garlic loaf, there's a cheese bread to suit every taste and skill level.
1 - Cheese & Bacon Scrolls
You know those cheese and bacon scrolls at the supermarket with the thick layer of cheese and diced bacon? Make your own but even better with cheese, bacon and spring onion. These scrolls are crispy on the bottom, soft and fluffy on the inside. And you can't stop at just one.
2 - Khachapuri Georgian Cheese Bread
While we can't travel overseas, take a trip to Georgia (in Europe) for this Khachapuri Georgian Cheese Bread. It's a boat-shaped fluffy bread filled with gorgeous melty cheese and a egg on top. It's served with pats of butter and you tear off some bread and dip it into the runny yolk and melted cheese and use the bread to scoop up the delicious filling!
3 - Vegemite Pullapart Loaf
This amazing Hedgehog Loaf requires no baking at all, just a store bought loaf, cheese, butter, Vegemite and a knife! It's also interactive and fun so great if you have friends or kids that enjoy sharing.
4 - Turkish Pide
This recipe although a few years old is having a bit of a resurgence as someone rediscovers it and shares it with their friends and then I get a whole lot of messages saying how good it is! Making your own Turkish Pide bread is a cinch and you just stuff it with whatever takes your fancy.
5 - Mozzarella Garlic Bread
I'm sort of in love with this bread. So much so that I think I ate half the loaf in the first sitting (in my defence I had soup so it was a dipping situation). Inside the soft, pillowy loaf are balls of oozy mozzarella with garlic butter! Heaven on earth!
So tell me Dear Reader, which cheese bread did you like the sound of best? Have you made any of these recipes?
