Cheesy Pesto Pull-Apart Bread

Ingredients

• 1 round loaf of bread (slightly stale works best)
• 1 package (8 oz / 227 g) Rumiano Organic Mozzarella, shredded
• ¼ cup Rumiano Organic Parmesan, grated

Homemade pesto

• 2 cups fresh basil
• 1 garlic clove
• ¼ cup toasted pine nuts
• ½ package Rumiano Organic Parmesan (6 oz / 170 g package)
• ⅓–½ cup olive oil
• Pinch of salt

Instructions

1. Blend basil, garlic, pine nuts, Rumiano Organic Parmesan, olive oil and salt until smooth.

2. Cut the bread in a crosshatch pattern to create cubes without slicing all the way through.

3. Stuff between the bread pieces with pesto, Rumiano Organic Mozzarella and a sprinkle of Rumiano Organic Parmesan.

4. Wrap the bread in parchment paper and foil.

5. Bake at 375°F for 15 minutes.

6. Open the foil and bake another 8–10 minutes until the cheese melts and the top becomes golden and crispy.

7. Pull apart and enjoy the melty cheese magic.
