Ingredients
Scale
Dip Ingredients
- 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup sour cream
- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- 1 (14 oz) can artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
- 1 cup frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Bread Ring Ingredients
- 2 (8 oz) cans refrigerated biscuit dough
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a bundt pan or a large oven-safe skillet to prevent sticking.
- Mix Dip Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, artichoke hearts, spinach, mozzarella, Parmesan, garlic, salt, and pepper. Stir until the mixture is smooth and all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- Prepare Biscuit Dough: Separate the biscuit dough into individual biscuits, then cut each biscuit in half. Roll each half into a small ball to form uniform dough pieces.
- Arrange Dough in Pan: Place the dough balls around the outer edge of the greased bundt pan or skillet, forming a ring shape. Leave the center open for the dip filling.
- Add Spinach Artichoke Mixture: Spoon the prepared spinach artichoke dip mixture into the center space of the dough ring.
- Brush and Season Dough: Brush the dough balls evenly with melted butter. Sprinkle the dried Italian seasoning over the dough for added flavor.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the biscuit dough is golden brown and cooked through, and the dip is hot and bubbly.
- Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and let the bread ring cool for 5 minutes before serving to allow the dip to set slightly.
Notes
- For a spicier variation, use a blend of mozzarella and pepper jack cheeses.
- You can prepare the dip mixture a day ahead and store it in the refrigerator, then assemble the bread ring just before baking.
- Make sure to squeeze excess water from the thawed spinach to prevent a watery dip.
- If you don’t have a bundt pan, a large oven-safe skillet or round baking dish works as well.
