Baking Cheesy Baguette Bread at Home
The savory aroma of baguette bread topped with melted cheese is truly appetite-whetting! This combination of baguette and cheese, with no added fuss, is perfect with a cup of coffee. It’s incredibly simple yet satisfying.
Ingredients
- 1 Baguette
- Jalapeño cheese, desired amount
- Gouda cheese, desired amount
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Prepare all the necessary ingredients for the recipe. Having fresh baguette and your favorite cheeses ready is key.
Step 2
Slice the baguette into bite-sized pieces. Slicing them not too thin will help prevent them from breaking when the cheese is added and ensure a better texture.
Step 3
Now it’s time to top the baguettes with cheese. Thinly slice the soft Gouda cheese and the Jalapeño cheese, which has little pieces of jalapeño studded throughout. (Tip: You can also add thinly sliced aged mild cheddar for extra flavor.) Arrange the prepared cheeses attractively on top of the sliced baguette pieces. Pro Tip: Baking on whole wheat bread, regular sandwich bread, or even slightly stale baguette also yields a delicious crispy result. It’s generally recommended over rye bread for this recipe.
Step 4
Preheat your oven or air fryer to 200°C (400°F). Place the prepared cheese-topped baguettes inside and bake for about 6 minutes, or until the cheese is nicely melted and golden brown, and the baguette is slightly crispy. (Baking time may vary depending on your appliance.)
