{Guilt Free} Savory Prosciutto, Kale & Parmesan Bread

What are the holidays without dishes that are full of delicious carbs? Honey baked rolls? Cinnamon crumb filled cinnamon rolls? Irresistible marshmallow topped sweet potato casserole?

All heavenly treats that make you smile from ear to ear.

Honestly, before a few months ago, I could pass on baking bread until our banana’s were passed their prime and were begging to be made into banana bread. Even then, it was my hubby’s specialty so I gladly let him tear up the kitchen for once.

Bread that has me obsessing with becoming a bread maker. I might just become those crazy ladies that stock piles bread, sell it on Sunday’s at the church bake sale and give loaves of it for presents during the holidays.

Sorry family and friends. Just spoiled your Christmas presents.

The perfect cheesy bread that is perfect for the holiday season and compliments any dinner! When Food Network released their last magazine, their booklet was 50 Quick Breads. Everything from sweet to savory. My mouth started to water. And my brain started racing with ideas. I ran straight from the gym and into my kitchen. That is what running is for so I can indulge in my treats, right?

This year appears to be the year of kale and so once again, I thought a bit of green mixed with salty and buttery prosciutto would make all the boys come to the yard. And boy did they. It was only my husband, but hey, he gave me two thumbs up for this one.

I started with my apple bread as a base. Nixed the sugar, add all the savory components and popped her into the oven and awaited (not so) patiently. My masterpiece of savory parmesan bread not only was a hit, but it was completely satisfying as dinner.

Brinner for the win.

    I want all the carbs. All the time. Seriously. If I could live on breads and pastas, I would. This loaf looks so so good...I love the addition of the kale :) So I don't have to feel so bad about eating it, because it's filled with veggies ;)

    I'm vegetarian, so I'm thinking this recipe would be easily possible if I use a fake bacon type of thing. Looks soooo tasty. :] // itsCarmen.com ☼ ☯

    Loved that you "snuck" some kale into this bread. And I can't believe it's gluten free, too. I will be pinning this as a potential must have this Thanksgiving!

    Can I use a substitute for the applesauce?

      Hi Anjali, I am not sure what to substitute as I have not tested it. Sometimes you can sub banana that is more in sweet recipes. Maybe greek yogurt but I have a feeling that is going to be too tart. I am sorry, I can't give you an answer because I have not tested it!
