This buffalo pull apart bread is one of my favorite old recipes. It is so easy to make, it is ooey-gooey delicious, and it is something you are going to crave long after you have it. This bread is perfect to make for game-day parties or if you are craving carbs at the end of a long week.
Substitutions for Blue Cheese
If you don’t like blue cheese, you are not alone. It has a very distinct flavor that people either love or don’t. I would suggest that you take out the blue cheese and substitute it with more shredded mozzarella or monterey jack cheese.
Cut the bread. Cut the loaf of bread length-wise and width-wise, being careful to not cut all the way through the loaf.Make the buffalo filling. Melt your butter in a saucepan then whisk in the buffalo sauce, scallions, and the blue cheese crumbles and stir to combine.Add the mozzarella to the bread. Press it into the cuts you made in the bread. Then use a spoon to add the sauce to the bread, getting some into each of the cracks.Bake the bread. Loosely tent the bread with foil and bake until the cheese is melted. Serve immediately.
Use a super sharp serrated knife to cut the loaf. Make sure you don’t cut all the way through the loaf. This allows the sauce and cheese to soak into the bread but not fall out the bottom. Since pre-shredded cheese is covered with preservatives to prevent it from clumping together, I recommend shredding cheese from a block for all of your recipes that call for shredded cheese. It will melt and taste so much better. It is worth it to take the extra couple of minutes to shred your own mozzarella. If you need to, use your fingers to get all the mozzarella cheese into the crevices of the bread. Your hands can be the best kitchen tools you have! Make sure your hands are clean.
Making Ahead
If you want to make this pull-apart bread ahead of time, prepare the recipe up to the point of baking it. Cover it with foil and refrigerate for up to one day in advance. Take out of the refrigerator and bake with the foil tented over it. It is delicious as is, but can also be served with Ranch Dressing for dipping or for even more blue cheese flavor, Blue Cheese Dressing.
