Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
Remove some of the bread from the middle of bread halves to accommodate more toppings. Spread about 1 teaspoon butter on each half.
Spread 2 to 3 tablespoons warmed refried beans on bread. Sprinkle about 1/4 cup Borden® Cheddar and Monterey Jack shredded cheese on the beans. Place bread halves on prepared baking sheet.
Bake in preheated oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the bread is crispy
15 to 20 minutes.
Top molletes with Mexican salsa or pico de gallo.
Cook’s Note
Traditionally
molletes are served with Mexican sauce (salsa Mexicana)
but any salsa would work with them.If you would like to make them fancier
you could add toppings such as bacon
chorizo
mushrooms
or poblano peppers.This recipe is excellent for using leftover bolillos or dining rolls.
