A few weeks ago I shared my recipe for Cinnamon Roll Pulls, a sweet pull apart bread. In the post I mentioned a savory cheesy version. I had several requests for the cheesy bread recipe. Well, you asked for it, you got it!
I went with a cheddar bacon ranch bread. I knew these flavors would work well together since they are in my favorite dip, Crack Dip. The bread was unbelievable! My favorite part was the ranch butter that was poured over the loaf. Like the Cinnamon Roll Pulls, this bread is highly addictive. We will refer to this bread as "Crack Bread" from now on! Give it a try at your next gathering. I guarantee everyone will love it!
Cheddar Bacon Ranch Pulls (a.k.a. Crack Bread)
(Printable Recipe)
Add this recipe to ZipList!
1 unsliced loaf of (round is preferable) sourdough bread
8-12 oz cheddar cheese, thinly sliced
3 oz bag Oscar Mayer Real Bacon bits
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 Tbsp Ranch dressing mix
Using a sharp bread knife cut the bread going both directions. Do not cut through the bottom crust. Place slices of cheese in between cuts. Sprinkle bacon bits on bread, making sure to get in between cuts. Mix together butter and Ranch dressing mix. Pour over bread. Wrap in foil the entire loaf in foil and place on a baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes. Unwrap. Bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted.

This version is like what I was familiar with. In our version we use melted butter and Colby Jack cheese with Sour Dough bread. From now on I am adding the bacon!!! Just had the cinnamon bread again this past weekend. It will be our Sunday breakfast for a good bit, at least, until they tell me to stop!
EVIL, just plain sinful!
Looks delicious.

Delightful Bitefuls
Wow - I am officially drooling all over my desk at work. Ha! I need to make this now.
Oh my gosh, this looks amazing. You are so awesome!
I just sort of accidentally stumbled on your blog and I honestly think I might be in love. Cheddar and bacon and ranch? With carbs? Gah! Love!
Holy moly. Can't wait for the next party so I can bring this!
The BF saw this on al.com this week and asked me to make, which I did today. Oh my!! We now have a new menu addition for football Saturdays! So glad to find your blog.
@The First Time Mom - I agree - this is perfect party food!
@Robertson Pest and Termite - this bread is great tailgate food! Glad you found us!
My, oh my. I've made both now and the hubs and son can't decide which one they like more. The son asked me to make pasta with the crack version so he could make a 'better' decision. Ha...I think he just wants more. Thanks so much for the great recipes.
Made this last Thursday. It was fantastic!!!
The only thing I don't normally have on hand is the bread. Adding that to my list now! I can't stop drooling over the pictures, so who knows what will happen when I make it. Thanks for sharing!
This would be so easy to take to a pot luck down the street, thanks!
Reminds me of Bacon Cheese Fries! :)
