Tips:
- Use good quality cheddar cheese: The better the cheese, the better the pull apart bread will be. Look for a sharp cheddar with a strong flavor.
- Shred the cheese yourself: Pre-shredded cheese contains additives that can prevent it from melting smoothly. Shredding the cheese yourself will give you the best results.
- Use a bread machine or stand mixer to make the dough: This will save you time and effort, and it will also ensure that the dough is properly kneaded.
- Let the dough rise in a warm place: This will help it to double in size and become light and fluffy.
- Don't over-bake the bread: The pull apart bread should be golden brown on top and cooked through in the center. Over-baking will make the bread dry and crumbly.
- Serve the pull apart bread warm: This is when it is at its best. You can reheat it in the oven or microwave if necessary.
