Ranch Bread Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Put the Monterey Jack, Cheddar, parsley, bacon and onion whites in a bowl and mix well.
• Cut the bread in strips in one direction, being careful not to cut all the way through the loaf. Rotate the bread 90 degrees and cut in the other direction to create small squares across the top of the loaf. Move slowly and use caution. Place the bread on a large sheet of aluminum foil.
• Stuff the cheese mixture in between the rows of squares. Mix the melted butter and ranch dressing, then drizzle over the top. Wrap the loaf in the foil and bake for 25 minutes. Open the foil and continue to bake until heated through and the cheese is melted and bubbly, another 10 minutes. Sprinkle with the onion greens and serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add the buttermilk, butter, sugar, eggs, ranch dressing mix, salt and 4 cups flour; beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough., Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour., Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide into fourths. Roll each portion into a 14x12-in. rectangle. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a long side; pinch seams to seal and tuck ends under. Place seam side down on two greased baking sheets. With a sharp knife, make five shallow slashes across the top of each loaf. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30 minutes., Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Brush with melted butter. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine 2 cups (8 oz.) cheese and 3/4 cup salad dressing with bacon; set aside. Cut 1 loaf (1 lb.) French bread in half lengthwise; brush with 2 Tbsp. melted butter. Broil 4 in. from heat on baking sheets until golden brown. Spread with cheese mixture. Bake at 350° for 10-15 minutes or until cheese is melted. Sprinkle with minced fresh parsley. Serves 8.

Steps:

• Slice bread almost whole way through being careful to still leave it connected at bottom of loaf.
• Put bread on a sheet of aluminun foil large enough to fold up around the loaf.
• Melt butter, add the remaining ingredients to the melted butter and mix.
• Spread this mix in the slices in the bread.
• I use a tablespoon and put one spoonful between each slice.
• There will be a little of the butter mix left, I usually pour this over the top of the bread.
• Wrap aluminun foil up around sides of loaf, leaving the top exposed.
• Cook for 10 minute on 350, this is just long enough to make the top and bottom crispy and warm the bread up.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine butter, dressing mix and garlic powder; beat until combined. Spread over cut sides of bread. Place on a baking sheet. Broil 4-6-in. from the heat for 3-4 minutes or until golden brown.

Steps:

• Dissolve yeast in warm water and let sit for 10 minutes.
• Stir olive oil, garlic powder, oregano, basil, and onion salt into the yeast mixture. Mix in 2 1/2 cups of the flour. Turn dough out onto a clean, well-floured surface and knead in remaining flour until dough is no longer sticky. Place dough into a well-oiled bowl and cover with a cloth. Let rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• While the dough is rising, cut chicken into small chunks and place in a bowl. Add Parmesan cheese and ranch dressing mix and toss until chicken is well coated; set aside.
• Punch dough down and form into a tight ball. Allow dough to relax for a minute, then roll on a lightly floured surface into a large rectangle. Use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to cut small strips down each side of the rectangle.
• Scoop chicken mixture along the center of the dough between the cuts. Alternating back and forth, fold all dough strips over the chicken mixture as if you were braiding hair. Transfer to a lightly oiled baking pan and let rise for 15 to 20 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
