Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece French bread loaf
- 200 grams Spinach (fresh)
- 225 grams Cream cheese (softened)
- 200 grams Mozzarella cheese (shredded)
- 50 grams Parmesan cheese (grated)
- 50 grams Unsalted butter
- 3 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Chili flakes (optional)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the French bread loaf in half lengthwise and place the halves on a large baking sheet, cut side up.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the softened cream cheese, shredded mozzarella, and grated Parmesan cheese until smooth.
Stir in the cooked spinach, salt, black pepper, and chili flakes (if using) until well combined.
Spread the prepared cheesy spinach mixture evenly over the cut sides of the French bread.
Melt the unsalted butter and brush it over the edges of the bread for extra flavor and crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and slightly golden on top.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before slicing into pieces.
Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Cheesy Spinach Bread!
