Savory Cheese and Ham Bread

Savory Cheese and Ham Bread

This recipe was spontaneously created during a workshop, showcasing the ability to craft both sweet and savory breads. I was pleasantly surprised by its success, as everyone enjoyed its tender, soft, fluffy, and delicious nature.

I've recreated it at home, meticulously noting and measuring the ingredients using what I found in the fridge. Feel free to be creative with the filling. I've experimented with ham, cheese, and mushrooms/olives, but you can also try various vegetables, sausages, or meats.

My husband was thrilled to have a delightful alternative to his usual morning sandwiches.
