This is particularly punchy sourdough that is at its best when toasted and slathered with butter!<\/p>\n

To say I can\u2019t get enough of this sourdough is something of an understatement!! I ate a version of this bread recently on holiday as mini sourdough rolls. I have since made it several times, mostly in loaf form as I have done here.<\/p>\n

I tend to use smoked Red Leicester cheese but smoked Cheddar is also wonderful. I recommend patting dry the pickled jalape\u00f1os in a clean cloth or kitchen towel to minimise extra moisture within the dough.<\/p>\n

You can either add the cheese in smallish chunks or you can grate it. I love going for chunks, giving more pockets of air in the bread where each piece of cheese has melted, but if you prefer a more uniform crumb use grated cheese. Simiarly, you can cut the apple into larger pieces if you prefer.<\/p>\n

For this sourdough, you need to make up the basic dough first and let it have its bulk fermentation.<\/p>\n

The ingredients for this loaf kick in once you are ready to shape the dough and pop it into the banneton: this is after stage 6 of my main sourdough recipe<\/a>.<\/p>\n
