Learn how to make delicious Cheesy Spinach Garlic Pull Apart Bread. Easy recipe with step-by-step instructions.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Gather these ingredients, and you’ll be on your way to creating a dish that’s sure to impress:

  • 1 loaf of sourdough bread
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for a hint of spice)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

If sourdough isn’t your bread of choice, feel free to substitute with French bread or a hearty Italian loaf. The key is to choose a bread that can hold up to the cheese and garlic goodness.

Instructions

Let’s bring this recipe to life in your kitchen:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. Using a sharp bread knife, carefully cut the sourdough loaf into a grid pattern. Make sure not to slice all the way through, leaving the base of the loaf intact.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine the mozzarella, Parmesan, and chopped spinach. Mix until evenly distributed.
  4. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic, olive oil, oregano, and red pepper flakes. Stir until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
  5. Place the loaf on the prepared baking sheet. Gently pry apart the bread sections and evenly distribute the spinach and cheese mixture within the cuts.
  6. Brush the top of the bread with the butter and garlic mixture, ensuring every nook and cranny is coated.
  7. Season with salt and pepper to taste. If you’re anything like my abuela, a little extra sprinkle of love never hurts!
  8. Cover the loaf with aluminum foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
  9. Allow the bread to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy the delightful aroma that fills your home!
