Jalapeno Cheese Bread Tips
Can you make this jalapeno cheese bread in a Dutch oven?
You can! A Dutch oven is a tried and true classic when it comes to baking bread! We love that a
Dutch oven creates a steamy environment in which the bread can bake. Just be aware that if you use one Dutch oven to make one larger loaf, your bread may need more time to bake to golden brown perfection.
What can you serve with jalapeno cheese bread?
Of course, this would be a great dunking vessel for
traditional chili. But if you are looking for a fun twist on regular chili, this bread would also be great with our
spicy white chili. It also pairs well with our
spicy chicken and rice. Use leftovers for toast,
croutons or delicious sandwiches.
How can you make jalapeno cheese bread your own?
You can certainly play around with the jalapenos you choose to use. While fresh is great,
canned and pickled jalapenos lend a nice kick and zip to the bread! This recipe also calls for cheddar cheese, but you can switch up with your favorite. If you really want to kick up the heat, consider using pepper jack.
