Prepare the Ingredients
Begin by gathering all the ingredients. Cut the Fontina cheese into small cubes. Slice the crusty bread into thick pieces.
2
Melt the Butter
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat until it is completely liquid and just beginning to bubble.

Combine Cheese and Butter
Add the cubed Fontina cheese to the melted butter in the saucepan. Stir gently until the cheese starts to melt and becomes creamy.
4
Season the Mixture
Add the fresh thyme and black pepper to the melted cheese and butter mixture. Stir well to combine and remove from heat.

5
Prepare to Serve
Drizzle olive oil and balsamic vinegar over the sliced crusty bread on a serving platter.

Serve the Cheese
Pour the melted Fontina mixture over the crusty bread slices. Serve immediately while warm, allowing guests to dip the bread into the cheesy goodness.
