How To Make Pioneer Woman Jalapeno Cheese Bread

1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 325 degrees F (163 degrees C).
2. Prepare the Cheese Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, mayonnaise, chopped jalapeños, grated white Cheddar, grated pepper Jack, finely chopped green olives, green chiles, and sliced green onions. Mix these ingredients until well combined and the mixture is smooth.
3. Spread on Bread: Next, evenly spread the cheese mixture over each half of the sliced French bread. Place the bread halves onto a baking sheet.
4. Bake the Bread: Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until the cheese has melted and is lightly browning on top.

Recipe Tips

• Butter Should Be Soft: Make sure your butter is soft. It mixes better and spreads easier on the bread.
• Grate Cheese Yourself: It’s best to grate your own cheese. The cheese you grate melts better than the cheese you buy already grated.
• Change the Spicy Level: If you don’t like it too spicy, take out the seeds from the jalapeños. If you like more spice, add extra jalapeños.
• Keep an Eye on the Oven: Ovens are different, so check your bread after 20 minutes to make sure it does not get too brown. The cheese should be melted and just turning brown.
• Make Cheese Mix Early: You can make the cheese mix 2 days before and keep it in the fridge. This saves you time and makes the taste better.

How To Store Jalapeno Cheese Bread

• Refrigerate: Cool the Jalapeno Cheese Bread completely. Then, either cover the dish with plastic wrap or transfer it to an airtight container. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
• Freeze: For extended storage, freeze the bread. First, wrap it tightly with aluminum foil, then place it in a freezer bag or use a freezer-safe container. The bread can be frozen for up to 2 months. When ready to eat, thaw it overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.

How To Reheat Leftover Jalapeno Cheese Bread

• In The Oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the leftover bread on a baking sheet and cover it with aluminum foil. Reheat for about 10-15 minutes, or until it is hot all the way through.
• In The Microwave: Put a portion of the bread in a microwave-safe dish and cover it loosely with a microwave-safe cover. Heat on high for 1-2 minutes, checking after the first minute to ensure even warming.
• In The Air Fryer: Preheat the air fryer to 350°F (175°C). Transfer the bread to an air fryer-safe container. Heat for about 3-5 minutes, checking halfway to avoid overheating or drying out.
