Here’s a delicious Philly Cheesesteak Bread recipe — all the flavors of a classic Philly cheesesteak in a pull-apart, cheesy bread loaf 🥖🧀🥩.
Ingredients
- 1 loaf of French bread or Italian bread
- 300–400 g thinly sliced beef (ribeye or sirloin works best)
- 1 small onion, thinly sliced
- 1 bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 2–3 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1 cup shredded provolone or mozzarella cheese
- 2–3 tbsp mayonnaise or cream cheese (optional, for extra creaminess)
Instructions
1. Preheat oven
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
2. Cook the filling
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- Sauté onion and bell pepper until soft.
- Add thinly sliced beef, garlic powder, salt, and pepper, and cook until beef is browned.
3. Prepare the bread
- Slice the loaf lengthwise, keeping it in one piece (like a hinge).
- Hollow out some of the soft center if needed to make room for the filling.
4. Assemble
- Spread mayonnaise or cream cheese on the bread if using.
- Add the cooked beef, onion, and peppers evenly.
- Top with shredded cheese.
5. Bake
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10–15 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
6. Serve
- Slice into portions and serve hot.
- Optional: garnish with fresh parsley or hot sauce.
💡 Tips
- For extra gooeyness, use a mix of provolone and mozzarella.
- You can also make mini cheesesteak bread rolls for parties or snacks.
- If you like it extra crispy, toast the bread lightly before adding the filling.
I can also give you a slow-cooker version of Philly cheesesteak filling that makes this bread even easier to assemble.
