Blue Cheese, Pine Nut and Cranberry Sourdough Cob Loaf Dip
This is one of those special little indulgences that are perfect for a special occasion. Or just any day of the week!
I’ve used one of those sourdough dough mini cobs from Woolworths, they’re not full size, but they are bigger than a roll. I’d say twice the size of a normal roll and about half the size of a full cob! Perfect for two!
I always buy an extra roll to pull apart and bake for dippers too. You do not want to run out of bread dippers for your cob loaf dip!
Method
-
Cut a circle out of the top of the cob almost the size of the round of cheese and pull the bread out of the middle in chunks.
-
Place all of the bread pieces onto an oven tray, spray with olive oil, and sprinkle over half of the thyme leaves.
-
Place the round of blue cheese into the cob's cavity.
-
Top with pine nuts, cranberries and thyme leaves. Replace the cob loafs lid and put in the oven for 15 mins.
-
Place the bread pieces in the oven and bake for another 10 mins.
-
Once the cheese is super gooey and melted its ready to eat!
You can swap out the blue cheese for a round of Camembert cheese if you prefer.
If you like a little bit of sweetness with your blue cheese cob loaf dip drizzle some honey over the top and serve with some plump fresh figs if they’re in season!
