Nonstick cooking spray
All-purpose flour, for dusting

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the bread will be. Look for fresh, high-quality ham, Swiss cheese, and bread.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the bread tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place. This will help the dough to rise properly and produce a light and airy bread.
  • Bake the bread at a high temperature. This will help to create a crispy crust and a soft interior.
  • Let the bread cool slightly before slicing. This will help to prevent the bread from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Ham and Swiss bread is a delicious and versatile bread that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make a perfect ham and Swiss bread that will impress your family and friends.
