- 1 large round loaf sourdough bread
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup shredded medium cheddar cheese
Prepare
- Chop 1 bunch green onions
- Mince 12 clove garlic
- 1/2 lbs cream cheese, room temperature, cut into small cubes
- 2 water-packed artichoke hearts, drained and lightly chopped
- 2 sourdough baguettes, sliced into thin rounds
Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
-
Step 2.
Cut a hole in the top of the large sourdough round and set the cut piece aside; do not discard it. Remove most of the soft inside bread, leaving enough so the loaf holds its shape—this will serve as the serving bowl for the dip.
-
Step 3.
Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a sauté pan over medium heat. Add the chopped green onions and sauté for 1 to 2 minutes, until softened. Add the minced garlic and sauté for another 1 to 2 minutes, until the onions are soft and the garlic is fragrant.
-
Step 4.
In a large bowl, combine the room-temperature cream cheese (cut into small cubes), sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, and the sautéed onions and garlic. Mix well until evenly combined.
-
Step 5.
Fold in the drained and lightly chopped artichoke hearts until evenly distributed.
-
Step 6.
Scoop the artichoke-cheese mixture into the hollowed-out sourdough round. Place the reserved top piece over the hole in the bread.
-
Step 7.
Wrap the filled loaf in a double layer of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Bake for 1½ to 2 hours, until the dip is hot and bubbly.
-
Step 8.
Remove the loaf from the oven and carefully remove the foil. Serve the dip warm with the sliced sourdough baguette rounds.
