How to Make Bacon Swiss Bread
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Cut a loaf of bread into 1-inch thick slices, leaving the slices attached at the bottom to form a loaf.
- In a medium bowl, combine 1/4 cup (57g) softened butter, 1/2 cup (75g) finely chopped onion, and 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard. Mix well.
- Spread the butter mixture evenly on both sides of each bread slice.
- Cut 4 ounces (113g) of Swiss cheese into four triangles per slice of bread.
- Place the cheese triangles between the bread slices.
- Cut 6 slices of bacon in half widthwise, then in half lengthwise to create smaller pieces.
- Drape a piece of bacon over each slice of bread.
- Place the assembled loaf on a double thickness of heavy-duty aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the bacon is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
