Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prep the Peppers

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash the banana peppers, cut off the tops, and remove the seeds if desired for less heat.

  2. 2

    Stuff the Peppers

    Finely chop the garlic and combine it with the Italian cheese. Stuff the mixture into each banana pepper until full.

  3. 3

    Drizzle with Olive Oil

    Place the stuffed banana peppers on a baking sheet. Drizzle them with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and black pepper.

  4. 4

    Bake the Peppers

    Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the peppers are blistered and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Bread

    While the peppers are baking, grill the slices of bread until they are golden brown.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove the blistered banana peppers from the oven and serve them hot alongside the grilled bread.
