Ingredients
1 round sourdough boule
1 cup frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
1 cup canned artichoke hearts, chopped
4 oz cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup sour cream
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil or melted butter
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Using a serrated knife, cut the sourdough boule in a grid pattern, being careful not to slice all the way through.
3. In a bowl, mix the cream cheese, sour cream, spinach, artichoke hearts, garlic, half the mozzarella, and half the parmesan. Season with salt and pepper.
4. Gently stuff the filling into the cuts of the bread using a spoon or clean hands.
5. Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella and parmesan over the top of the bread.
6. Brush the top of the bread with melted butter or olive oil.
7. Wrap the loaf loosely in foil, leaving the top slightly open, and place on a baking sheet.
8. Bake for 20–25 minutes or until the cheese is melted and golden.
9. For extra crispiness, open the foil completely for the last 5 minutes of baking.
10. Serve hot and enjoy pulling apart the gooey, cheesy bites!
Notes
Use a dense, crusty bread like sourdough to prevent sogginess when baked.
Make sure your spinach is fully drained—excess moisture can ruin the texture.
You can prep this loaf 6 hours in advance and store it in the fridge until ready to bake.
