Ingredients for Cheesy Ranch Bacon Pull-Apart Bread

The ingredients for this simple cheese bacon ranch bread are simple and adjustable.

To make the bacon ranch cheese laden bread the most irresistible and addicting version, you will need the following ingredients:

• Round loaf of bread – Hawaiian is perfect but a sourdough will work too
• Butter – The real deal
• Ranch seasoning
• Cheese – Sliced or shredded work. The original recipe used sliced colby-jack but it works fine with shredded colby-jack or cheddar.
• Bacon – Fried and crumbled
• Green onions

The bread can be made without green onions. The bacon can be substituted for fried bacon crumbles.

How to Make Pull-Apart Bacon Cheese Ranch Bread

It is so easy to make too. Just cut the round to form a checkerboard pattern all the way through till you are one inch above the bottom of the loaf.

Fry up about four slices of bacon, crumble and set aside. Then slice a block of Co-Jack cheese into square pieces. I just cut the block in half to form two long pieces of cheese and then sliced. I put the cheese in all the checkerboard cracks. Sprinkled the bacon over top.

Melt a stick of butter and then add two tablespoons of ranch seasoning. Spoon over top of the cheese and bacon.

Sprinkle the bread with the green onions.

Cover with aluminum foil and bake on 350 for about 15 minutes. Uncover and bake for another 5 minutes or until cheese is melted.
