Preparation

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Spread the cheese generously over one side of each bread slice, about 1 to 2 tbsp (15 to 30 ml) per slice. Spread first, cut after, never the other way around.
  • Cut each slice into four squares and lay them out on the sheet.
  • Top each square with two strips of raw bacon.
  • Bake for about 25 minutes, until the bread is golden and the bacon is cooked through. Do not finish them under the broiler: the bacon should stay soft. Serve right away.
