Fried bread with cheese - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes! Any meltable cheese like mozzarella, cheddar, or even gouda works well. Avoid hard cheeses like Parmesan, as they won’t melt as smoothly.
Simply use gluten-free bread. The egg and cheese batter is naturally gluten-free, so it’s an easy swap.
Yes, you can mix the batter (eggs, cheese, and seasoning) up to a day in advance. Store it in an airtight container in the fridge.
For best results, reheat in a toaster oven or skillet over medium heat for 1-2 minutes per side to keep the bread crispy.
Freezing isn’t recommended, as the texture may become soggy when thawed. It’s best enjoyed fresh.
Try sour cream, salsa, avocado, or a drizzle of hot honey for extra flavor. It’s also great with a side salad.
Use slightly stale or toasted bread, and avoid over-soaking it in the batter—just a quick dip ensures crispiness.
Yes! Use dairy-free cheese and a plant-based milk (like almond milk) to thin the batter if needed.
Swap regular bread for low-carb or keto-friendly bread, and adjust portion sizes if needed.
