Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 large round sourdough loaf
  • 4 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella
  • 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar
  • 4 strips cooked bacon crumbled
  • 1–2 fresh jalapeños sliced
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley or chives optional
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. Slice the sourdough in a crosshatch pattern, being careful not to cut all the way through.
  3. In a bowl, mix cream cheese, sour cream, mozzarella, cheddar, garlic, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  4. Carefully stuff the cheese mixture into the cuts of the bread. Tuck bacon crumbles and jalapeño slices throughout.
  5. Transfer to prepared tray and bake for 20–25 minutes, until cheese is bubbly and bread edges are golden brown.
  6. Top with chopped herbs if using. Serve warm and enjoy by pulling apart pieces!
