Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole French bread loaf
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 cups Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the French bread loaf in half lengthwise and place the halves on a baking sheet, cut side up.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, but not browned.
Brush the garlic butter evenly over the cut sides of the bread.
In a medium bowl, mix the shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper.
Evenly sprinkle the cheese mixture over both halves of the bread, pressing gently to help it adhere.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Turn on the broiler for an additional 1-2 minutes to get the cheese golden and slightly crisp on top, watching closely to avoid burning.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool slightly.
Slice the bread into individual pieces and serve warm. Enjoy your cheesy bread!
