Crusty Pepperoni Bread

Most quick bread recipes you see are for sweet breads, this is a savory quick bread.  Another recipe gem from a family friend.  Perfect to serve along side a bowl of soup, as an appetizer (slice thin and add to any cheese tray), or dipped in your favorite marinara sauce.  Quick, easy and exceptionally good.

  1. This looks delicious! I wonder how it would be as muffins?

      Christina – Great idea for muffins – I think they would be terrific!

      • I’ll have to give it a try. I’ve been very into savory muffins of late — pumpkin cornbread; zucchini, egg and cheese. These would fall right into that category, I think.
