If you’re looking for another easy and delicious recipe for Super Bowl Sunday, here it is: Blue Cheese Buffalo Bites.

Blue Cheese Buffalo Bites

This is a recipe using sweet Hawaiian bread. The combination of the sweet bread with blue cheese and buffalo sauce is quite delicious! It’s an easy recipe to make.

You may already be familiar with the rolls, but you can also find sweet Hawaiian bread in the bread aisle of your local market. King’s Hawaiian makes it, but you may spot another brand or two that makes it as well. You can use any brand. For this recipe, I use the sliced bread in a much different way.  

✏️How to make Blue Cheese Buffalo Bites:

*The complete, printable recipe with all ingredients and instructions is at the end of this post.

1. Preheat the oven to 400℉. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silpat mat.
2. Use a pizza cutter or sharp knife to cut the edges (crusts) off of each slice of bread. Use a rolling pin to roll each slice of bread very flat (like a tortilla). Brush each slice of rolled bread with the buffalo sauce and sprinkle with the blue cheese crumbles. Roll up each slice tightly. Use a bread knife to cut 6 slices from each roll-up. Secure eat cut piece with a toothpick and place on the prepared baking sheet.
3. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and place on a serving platter. Serve immediately.

➡️Recipe Tips:

• MAKE AHEAD TIP: Prepare the bites and place them on the baking sheet. Wrap tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 2 or 3 hours. Remove plastic wrap before baking.
• Gorgonzola is a type of Italian blue cheese, so is also great for this recipe.
• I like to spread these out on two cookie sheets and bake them one after the other. That way I can have piping hot Blue Cheese Buffalo Bites coming hot out of the oven twice!

✔️What to serve with Blue Cheese Buffalo Bites:

• I like to serve these with Triple Onion Dip and Baked Jalapeño Poppers.
• For those with a sweet tooth, Snickerdoodle Blondies are always a hit.
• I’m more of a wine drinker, but my husband loves these with a nice IPA (India Pale Ale).

★How to Store:

I’d be shocked if you have any leftover to store, but in the unlikely event you do, story them covered in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 days. Gently reheat in the microwave (but don’t expect them to maintain that bit of crispness they have when freshly made).

❤️Why I love this recipe:

1. I love that when they’re all baked-up, the blue cheese melts into the bread and they turn out a little bit crispy. Delicious!
2. People are always a little surprised by this recipe. I really like that it’s a little unusual and anyone who liked Buffalo Wings is going to love it!
3. The spicy sauce and tangy cheese combination is one of my favorites.
