BREAD ROLLS with BACON and zucchini, great appetizer or aperitif to make in 5 minutes, cooked or raw perfect in an air fryer or in a pan, too tasty!
These bread rolls with zucchini and bacon are one of my all-time favorite recipes: I prepare them in 5 minutes, without stress and… they always disappear in no time! 😍
Perfect as a quick appetizer, for a tasty aperitif or to put on the party buffet, these savoury rolls with sandwich bread are super crispy outside and very soft inside. You can cook them in an air fryer (they come out golden and light!) or in a pan, if you prefer a more “rustic” touch.
The combination of bacon and zucchini is top-notch, but you can customize them with spreadable cheese, provolone, mozzarella, or spices. They are also ideal for recycling the sandwich bread or classic white sliced bread that you already have at home, which I always have left over.
This easy and quick recipe is perfect also for those looking for ideas with zucchini in an air fryer, bacon in a pan, summer appetizers, savoury rolls for buffet, ideas with sandwich bread, quick finger food, recipes with zucchini and bacon, or simply a fridge-clearing recipe that’s tasty and saves dinner!
