Ingredients
- 1 whole Round rye bread loaf
- 227 grams Cream cheese
- 120 grams Sour cream
- 180 grams Shredded cheddar cheese
- 120 grams Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 50 grams Diced green onions
- 2 cloves Minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
Slice off the top of the round rye bread loaf and set it aside. Hollow out the loaf by removing the bread from the inside, leaving about 1 inch of bread around the outer edges to form a bowl. Reserve the removed bread pieces for dipping later.
Step 3
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, shredded mozzarella, diced green onions, minced garlic, salt, ground black pepper, and paprika. Mix until thoroughly combined.
Step 4
Spoon the cheese mixture into the hollowed-out bread bowl, packing it evenly.
Step 5
Place the filled bread bowl on a baking sheet. Arrange the reserved bread chunks around the bread bowl on the same baking sheet for toasting, if desired.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the cheese mixture is bubbling and golden on top, and the bread chunks are toasted.
Step 7
Carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven. Let the cheese-filled bread bowl cool slightly before serving.
Step 8
Serve warm by tearing off pieces of the toasted bread chunks or the bread bowl itself to dip into the hot, cheesy filling.
