Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Prosciutto — Make sure to choose a high-quality prosciutto for the best flavor and texture.
  • Sun-dried tomatoes — If using sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, drain them well before chopping.
  • Swiss cheese — Opt for a Swiss cheese with good melting properties, such as Emmental or Gruyère.

Tips & Tricks

  • For a vegetarian version, substitute the prosciutto with roasted vegetables like zucchini or bell peppers.
  • Experiment with different types of olives to add variety to the flavor profile.
  • Serve the Spanisch Brötli with a side of mixed greens or a fresh tomato salad for a complete meal.
  • If you prefer a spicier kick, add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes to the filling.
  • Customize the recipe by adding your favorite herbs or spices to the cheese mixture.

Serving advice

Serve the Spanisch Brötli warm, straight from the oven, to fully enjoy the melted cheese and crispy bread. Pair it with a fresh green salad or a bowl of soup for a satisfying meal.

Presentation advice

Arrange the Spanisch Brötli on a platter, garnished with fresh herbs like basil or parsley, to add a pop of color. Serve them individually or as a centerpiece for a casual gathering.
