Homemade Bacon and Cheese Pull Apart

Today has been a day for baking. I found a recipe on a blog called Food Wanderings in Asia (a seriously fantastic blog) that made a awesome looking pull apart, so I decided to give it a go. Only I didn't have an Italian Loaf Roll and I couldn't be bothered going up to the shop, I made my own.



The bread roll turned out beautifully. In fact, I think it is the best handmade bread (I didn't use the breadmaker) I have ever made.


Now the recipe I got from Food Wanderings, I have changed a bit but it is still the basic recipe. I have linked the blog up on the first paragraph.

Here is the recipe for the pull apart.

1 Italian loaf, about 12 inches long 
Half a cup butter, melted
2 Tbsp olive oil
3 tsp minced onion
2-3 cloves garlic, grated
1 tbsp dijon mustard
1 bacon rasher, chopped finely
1 cup grated cheese

Preheat the oven to 200.C

Fry off the onion, garlic and bacon till just cooked then mix the melted butter, olive oil, onion, garlic, dijon mustard and bacon in a bowl. 
Cut the bread into cubes with X slices without cutting all the way through the bottom crust. 
Pour the butter-onion garlic mixture carefully into those cracks using a small spoon and over the top of the bread. Then fill the cracks with the grated cheese.
Wrap the entire loaf with foil, sealing the sides properly and bake for 15-20 minutes. Remove from the oven and unwrap, let cool down for 5 minutes before eating.
