Green Chile Cheese Pull-Apart Bread

This Green Chile Cheese Pull-Apart Bread is the kind of warm, irresistible treat that disappears the moment it hits the table. Soft, buttery layers pull apart effortlessly, each bite filled with melted cheese and the unmistakable flavor of roasted green chiles. It’s a comforting, flavorful bread that works beautifully as a snack, appetizer, or a standout side for dinner.

What makes this bread especially appealing is its simplicity. By starting with biscuit dough or store-bought bread dough, you skip the work of mixing and rising, allowing the chile and cheese flavors to shine. The dough pieces soak up a savory butter mixture seasoned with garlic and just a hint of salt, creating tender, golden layers that bake up beautifully.

The roasted green chiles add a depth of flavor that’s both bold and inviting. Whether you choose mild or hot, they bring a signature Southwestern character that pairs perfectly with melty Monterey Jack or mozzarella. As the bread bakes, the cheese bubbles into the crevices while the top turns lightly crisp and golden.
