Tips from the

Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    We used regular-cut bacon in this recipe. You can use thick-cut bacon, but it will probably be more difficult to cut through in this recipe. When you do cut the Bundtwich into servings, we recommend using a large, serrated knife.
  • tip 2
    You can use Gouda cheese in place of Cheddar cheese, if desired.
  • tip 3
    Serve each slice with extra ranch dressing for dipping, if you’d like.
  • tip 4
    Save yourself some time! You can bake the dough for your Bundtwich up to 4 hours in advance so it’s ready to assemble for a quick meal.
  • tip 5
    After assembling, the uncut Bundtwich can be wrapped with plastic wrap and refrigerated up to 4 hours before serving.
