Cheesy Swiss Bacon Bread
Servings 8 to 10
Ingredients
- 1 (16-ounce) loaf soft french bread (not baguette)
- 1/2 cup salted butter, melted
- 2 teaspoons prepared yellow mustard
- 1 teaspoon dried chives
- 8 oz sliced Swiss cheese
- 5 to 6 slices thin bacon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with a slicone baking mat or several layers of parchment papaer or aluminum foil. (This helps to keep the bread from getting too dark on the bottom and makes cleanup easier.)
- In a small bowl, whisk together the butter, mustard, and chives. Set aside.
- Slice bread into about 16 1-inch pieces being cautious about not cutting all the way through the bottom of the bread.
- Place the bread on the prepared pan. Using a pastry brush or spoon, spread the butter mixture on both sides of each slice of bread.
- Cut Swiss cheese in half and place one piece in between each of the bread slices.
- Cut bacon strips in half and then cut each half in half lengthwise - giving you 4 pieces of bacon from each slice. Place a strip on top of each slice of bread.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until the bacon is crisp and the cheese is melted.
