Cheesy Breadcase Fondue Dip

• 1 loaf unsliced bread
• 250 g cream cheese
• 250 g sour cream
• 4 slices bacon
• spring onion
• extra bread or cracker, for dipping

1. Slice the top off the bread and scoop out the middle,leaving a breadcase/shell.
2. Keep the bread scooped out to dip with.
3. Cook bacon and dice.
4. I cook it in the microwave for 4-5 mins so it remains soft.
5. Bring cream cheese to room temperature or soften slightly in microwave.
6. Slice spring onions.
7. I'm not big on spring onions so I just 2-3 strands and use the green part only.
8. Mix together cream cheese, sour cream, diced bacon and sliced spring onions.
9. (I find it easier/smoother to mix sour cream and cream cheese with beater and then stir in bacon and spring onions.
10. ).
11. Put filling into breadcase and replace bread lid.
12. Cook for 1 hr on 100C.
13. Dippers - halfway thru cooking add bread pieces to oven to toast.
14. I also slice up a french stick and add this to the oven too.
15. Serve with toasted bread/crackers/pita bread/corn chips.
