Baked brie is such a nostalgic holiday recipe. I’m taking it one step further with this Bacon Brie Pull Apart Bread. The recipe was made in partnership with Pompeian Olive Oil.

Every party MUST start off with appetizers. It’s something that you can’t skimp on because people come hungry. Appetizers allow them to eat while you bust it in the kitchen for the main entree followed by dessert.

Appetizers don’t have to be hard and this Bacon Brie Pull-Apart Bread is a crowd pleaser with minimum prep time. It even allows you time to enjoy a beverage with your guests. 

I mean it has bacon and cheese… need I say more?!

You’ve seen the brie recipes topped with cranberry sauce or wrapped in a puff pastry. Now it’s time to make a different version by adding sourdough bread, bacon, and herbs for a cheesy appetizer recipe. 

Before it hits the oven drizzle it with Pompeian’s Robust Extra Virgin Olive Oil. It has a full-bodied flavor and is extremely low in acidity. This olive oil is perfect for marinades, pasta, salad dressings and the topping to this Bacon Brie Pull Apart Bread.
