Easy Bread Appetizer Directions

• Using a sharp knife, cut the crusts off and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• With a rolling pin, flatten each bread slice as much as you can. A fresh loaf of bread is recommended. One time I made this from a loaf that had been in the freezer, and it was harder to roll because it wasn’t as moist.
• With a butter knife, smear the jalapeno and artichoke filling (or whichever filling you prefer) over the thinly rolled bread slice. Use approximately one tablespoon of filling per slice.
• Roll the appetizer. This will be easy as long as the crusts have been cut off and the slices rolled thin. Again, white bread is easier to work with than french bread or wheat for this particular recipe.
• Cut each bread appetizer in half using a sharp knife. Next, smear a generous amount of butter on the outside of the bread with a butter knife.
• Place the bread appetizers on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Disregard this step if you’re using an air fryer.
• Bake them in the oven at 400 degrees F for 10-14 minutes, or until golden brown. If you own an air fryer, bake these bread bites at 400 degrees F for 6-7 minutes. The bites should look toasted all over with a golden brown color.
• Serve immediately. These bread appetizers taste best when served warm.
