Prep: 15 minutes mins
Cook: 30 minutes mins
Total: 45 minutes mins
Serves: 8 people
Ingredients
- 1 Pane Di Casa Vienna or Sourdough loaf of bread, unsliced
- 2/3 cup butter melted
- 4 cloves garlic crushed (or 1 tablespoon minced garlic)
- 1/3 cup pizza sauce
- 1/4 red onion finely chopped
- 1 large ripe tomato, finely chopped
- 3-1/2 ounces | 100 grams mini pepperoni slices
- Fresh basil leaves finely shredded
- 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 tablespoon dried Italian herbs or Italian seasoning
Instructions
Preheat oven to 176°C | 350°F degrees.
In a small bowl, combine the melted butter and crushed garlic. Mix well to combine. Set aside.
Place the loaf of bread on a chopping board. Using a sharp bread knife, cut the bread diagonally in rows across the top, down to 1-inches (2 cm) above the base in depth. (Be careful not to cut through to the base of the loaf.) Holding the bread firmly and gently over the top, cut through in rows in the other direction to create diamond shaped wedges.
Transfer to a baking sheet / tray lined with aluminium foil, or parchment paper.
Drizzle half of the garlic butter in between each wedge, followed by the pizza sauce. (It doesn't need to be neat!)
Follow with the onions, tomatoes, pepperoni slices, basil, and cheese.
Drizzle the remaining garlic butter over the top of bread and top with the Italian herbs (or seasoning).
Cover with foil and bake for 15 - 20 minutes, or until cheese has started to melted.
Uncover and bake for a further 10 minutes, or until bread is crunchy and the cheese has melted all the way through.
Remove and allow to cool slightly before serving.

Oh my damn…sooooo good. My family attacked this pull apart pizza bread like they had never eaten before! The recipe is a little time consuming, stuffing all the ingredients in between the slits, but so worth it. This recipe is definitely a keeper!Reply

Hi! Instead of a Roma tomatoe can you use homemade pizza sauce?!

I am from Suriname, South America. I made this pizza bread yesterday and it was so delicious. Everybody loved it. I am pleasantly surprised to find so many chicken recipes on your website, as we eat a lot of chicken in Suriname. I already tried some of the roasted chicken recipes and they were all very very good. Thank you very much for sharing your recipes. This is my number 1 website for recipes. WidjaiReply

I love these ingredients but have no luck cutting the bread. I get about 1/3 of the way through the second set of slicing and the bread just falls apart (I don’t cut all the way thru). Any suggestions?

Your either using too soft of bread, or not a sharp enough knife
