Description
A Stuffed Baguette is a variation of the traditional French baguette, where the crusty bread is hollowed out and filled with a mixture of savory ingredients. The recipe typically includes a combination of cheeses, savory spreads, meats, and seasonings, creating a filling and flavorful bite that pairs perfectly with a glass of wine or as part of a larger appetizer spread. This version, stuffed with creamy cheeses, olives, roasted peppers, and salami, is a perfect balance of flavors and textures, offering both creamy and crunchy sensations in each bite.
Ingredients
- 1 large baguette
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 4 oz goat cheese
- ¼ cup green olives, chopped
- ¼ cup black olives, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tbsp fire-roasted peppers, chopped
- 1 tsp dried parsley
- 1.5 oz salami, finely chopped
Instructions
- Prep the Baguette: Slice off both ends. Cut in half to make two 6-inch sections. Use a long knife to hollow out each half, leaving a ½-inch shell.
- Make the Filling: In a bowl, combine cream cheese, goat cheese, garlic, olives, peppers, parsley, and salami. Mix until smooth and well combined.
- Stuff the Baguette: Fill each hollowed baguette tightly with the cheese mixture, working from both ends. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (up to 2 days).
- Slice & Serve: Cut into ½-inch slices just before serving. Serve chilled or at room temp.
Notes
