Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large sourdough bread bowl

  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp Old Bay seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Notes

  • For extra crispness, pre-toast the bread bowl before filling.
  • Use gluten-free bread for a gluten-free option.
  • Add jalapeños or hot sauce for a spicy twist.
