Philly cheesesteak cheese bread is a mouthwatering fusion of two beloved comfort foods: the iconic Philly cheesesteak and cheesy, crusty bread. This recipe combines the savory flavors of a classic cheesesteak with the satisfying crunch of fresh-baked bread, making it a perfect appetizer, snack, or even a hearty meal. The blend of tender beef, sautéed onions, and gooey cheese on a crispy bread base creates a deliciously satisfying dish that’s easy to prepare and incredibly flavorful. I love to make this cheesesteak cheese bread for dinner for the whole family.
To start, you’ll need to prepare your bread base. A French baguette or Italian loaf works well, providing a sturdy platform for the toppings. Slice the bread in half lengthwise and lightly toast it in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5-7 minutes, until the cut sides start to turn golden. This pre-toasting helps the bread stay crisp and prevents it from becoming soggy when you add the toppings.
Next, cook your Philly cheesesteak filling. Begin by sautéing thinly sliced beef in a skillet over medium-high heat until it’s browned and cooked through. Season the beef with salt and pepper to taste. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, sauté thinly sliced onions (and bell peppers if desired) until they are soft and caramelized, about 5-7 minutes. Combine the cooked onions with the beef.
Assemble the cheese bread by spreading a layer of mayonnaise or butter on the toasted bread halves. Evenly distribute the beef and onion mixture over the bread. Top with slices of provolone or American cheese, ensuring the cheese covers the entire surface.
Return the prepared bread to the oven and bake at 375°F (190°C) for about 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. For a final touch, you can broil the bread for 1-2 minutes to achieve a golden, slightly crispy top.
Remove from the oven, let it cool slightly, then slice into portions. Serve warm and enjoy the deliciously cheesy, beefy goodness of Philly cheesesteak cheese bread. This recipe combines the best elements of a classic cheesesteak with the convenience and comfort of cheesy bread, making it a sure hit for any occasion.
