Provolone Pepperoni Bread

Growing up, and even now, whenever we visit grandma’s house, this Provolone Pepperoni Bread never fails to make its appearance at least for one dinner. But we don’t mind because it is a favorite and compliments so many different types of dinners. It has been in the family since before I was even born. And when a recipe sticks around that long, you know its a keeper.

This bread is cheesy. This bread is flavorful. The bread is amazing. You can never stop at just one slice!

The bread recipe is made with the Potato Roll Dough recipe that is found on this blog, giving it a unique soft texture and flavor.

You should definitely give this bread a try! I am sure you will love it as much as we do!

    Quick question, do you have to use real mashed potatoes or can you use boxed mashed potatoes? I have a packet of the flakes but no real potatoes on hand today. Thanks
