I wanted to post this one because it’s Friday, and Fridays should be all about fun finger foods you can share with your friends and co-workers. Also, any recipe with lots of butter and mushrooms deserves a serious shout-out. Enjoy!
CHEESY MUSHROOM PULL APART BREAD – you’ll need:
*For the mushrooms:
12 oz sliced mushrooms or 1 8oz can of mushrooms
1 Tbsp butter
1 Tbsp thyme
12 oz sliced mushrooms or 1 8oz can of mushrooms
1 Tbsp butter
1 Tbsp thyme
Drain water from the mushroom can, take a towel to dry them, put mushrooms in a bowl and set aside. Heat a medium skillet on medium. Add the butter. Once the butter is melted, add the mushrooms. Cook 4-5 minutes until they start to sweat. Add the thyme and continue to cook another 2-3 minutes.Set mushrooms aside and allow to cool.
*For the bread:
1 unsliced “loaf” or “round” sourdough bread
12 ounces Provolone or Mozzarella cheese, thinly sliced
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup finely diced green onion
1-2 Tbsp of “crushed” or “minced” garlic (depending on your tolerance)
1 unsliced “loaf” or “round” sourdough bread
12 ounces Provolone or Mozzarella cheese, thinly sliced
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup finely diced green onion
1-2 Tbsp of “crushed” or “minced” garlic (depending on your tolerance)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut the bread lengthwise and widthwise without cutting through the bottom crust. This can be a little tricky going the second way but the bread is very forgiving. Place loaf on a foil-lined baking sheet.Insert cheese slices between cuts. Pour the mushrooms between the cuts and use your fingers to push the mushrooms down into the loaf. Combine butter and onion and drizzle over bread. Wrap in foil; place on a baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.
Unwrap the bread and bake another 5-10 minutes or until cheese is melted.
