Ingredients
  

  • 15 slices Hawaiian bread or white bread, toasted
  • 8 slices long slices of cheese
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 slices pineapple
  • 4 slices ham
  • melted cheese & bacon bits to garnish

Instructions
 

  • Stack 8 slices of the toasted Hawaiian bread on top of each other and cut the pieces down to 3 x 3 inches. Cut the other 7 slices of toasted Hawaiian bread down to 3.5 x 3.5 inches.
  • Place 2 long slices of cheese, evenly spaced apart, in a large pan over medium heat. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top of the cheese slices and place 2 of the 3 x 3-inch toast pieces on top of each long cheese slice. For the toast rectangle on the left side of the pan, place a slice of ham on the upper piece of toast and a pineapple slice on the lower piece of toast. For the toast rectangle on the right side of the pan, place a pineapple slice on the upper piece of toast and a slice of ham on the lower piece of toast. Once the cheese is slightly crispy, fold the Hawaiian toast rectangles over themselves and then stack the 2 folded squares on top of each other. Repeat the entire process for a second Hawaiian toast stack that will be used for the roof of the bread house.
  • Arrange 5 of the 3.5 x 3.5-inch toast pieces in a W on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Top the toast pieces with 3 long slices of cheese and sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top. Transfer the baking tray to a preheated oven and cook at 350°F for 5 minutes.
  • Place one of the Hawaiian toast stacks in the middle of the W on the baking tray. Fold up the cheesy toast pieces that are lying flat and firmly press them into the Hawaiian toast stack. Hold the pieces in place until they stick.
  • Cut the second Hawaiian toast stack in half diagonally and place the triangles on top of the Hawaiian bread house to create the roof.
  • Place a long slice of cheese over the roof of the Hawaiian bread house and use a culinary torch to melt the cheese.
  • Place the last 2 pieces of 3.5 x 3.5-inch toast on top of the melted cheese to complete the roof. Pour melted cheese over the roof of the Hawaiian bread house and garnish with bacon bits.
