Ingredients

  • 1 loaf sourdough bread

  • 4 tablespoons butter, melted
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

  5. Sprinkle with chopped thyme, salt, and pepper.
  6. Wrap the loaf loosely in foil and place on a baking sheet.
  7. Bake covered for 15–20 minutes. Remove foil and bake an additional 5–10 minutes until golden and crisp.
  8. Serve warm for the best melty, pull-apart experience.

Notes

  • Add chopped pecans or walnuts for crunch.
  • Substitute Brie with Camembert or mozzarella for variation.
  • Try caramelized onions instead of cranberry for a savory version.
  • Add orange zest to cranberry sauce for a citrusy twist.
  • Make mini versions using individual bread rolls for parties.
