Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 loaf French baguette or Italian bread
- 1 medium Yellow onion
- 3 large Garlic cloves
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1.5 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cups Grated parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Cut the loaf of bread in half lengthwise and lay both halves cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
Thinly slice the onion. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Once melted, add the sliced onion and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is softened and caramelized, about 10-12 minutes. Set aside.
In a small pan or microwave-safe dish, melt the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter. Mince the garlic cloves and stir them into the melted butter along with the remaining salt and black pepper.
Brush the garlic butter generously over the cut sides of the bread. Be sure to get the butter into all the nooks and crannies for maximum flavor.
Evenly distribute the caramelized onions over the bread. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top, followed by the grated parmesan cheese.
Place the bread in the preheated oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and golden.
Remove from the oven and sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the top for a burst of freshness. Optionally, let the bread cool slightly before slicing to make it easier to handle.
Slice into pieces and serve warm. Enjoy your cheesy onion garlic bread as a snack, side dish, or party appetizer!
