2. Stage

In a food processor (shredding knife attachment), shred the cheese into fine crumbs and place on a plate.

3. Stage

Place the rye bread (slices) in the bowl of a food processor, also grind into fine crumbs. Add to the bread crumbs shredded cheese, soft butter, egg.

4. Stage

Mix all the ingredients into a homogeneous mass, the bread "dough" during the grinding should clump. If the mass remains in the form of crumbs, add water while mixing (through the hole in the lid). I needed 3 tablespoons of water. From the bread "dough" form 12 equal balls. Grease the basket molds with butter, spread the bread "ball" evenly inside the mold. Bake the baskets at 200 C for 20-25 minutes. Finished baskets gently remove from the molds, let them cool well. (You can bake in advance, and store in a bag until needed (3-5 days)).
