What Are Stuffed Bread Bombs?

Simply put, they are a modern twist on a family tradition. During the holiday season, our whole family would get together to prepare a big batch of meat and cheese stuffed bread.

The recipe has gone through a number of changes, but the idea came from Syrian and Lebanese meat pies. We loved the experience and flavors so much that we created a whole series of recipes from this one family tradition!

Tips For Making Bread Bombs

  • Choose your serving method. Spacing these out on a sheet pan will give you individual bites, or create pull-apart cheese bombs by nestling them all together inside of a baking dish.
  • Make sure they’re sealed! Pinch all of the seams closed and check for gaps before cooking. There’s nothing worse than finding out your fillings have all leaked out!
  • Prep in advance. Any of these can be put together the day before and kept in the refrigerator. When you’re ready to eat, just pop them in the oven and bake as directed.

Kitchen Tools You’ll Need

While each recipe can vary in preparation, these specific tools are a must whenever I’m making any of my bread bombs.

  • Box Grater – Trust me, it’s worth the extra effort to use fresh shreds. Not only do they melt down smoother, but the flavor is noticeably better too.
  • Small wooden dowel rolling pin – Perfect for rolling out smaller rounds of dough, whether it’s fresh or thawed from frozen. 

Easy Cheese Bombs

This has got to be the most requested version out of all my cheese stuffed bread recipes. The ratio of dough to fillings is so much better than any prepackaged frozen bites. Plus, you can easily customize them by adding whatever else you typically like on your pizza.
