Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Slice the French bread loaf in half horizontally to create two long pieces and place them cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the chopped artichoke hearts, mayonnaise, sour cream, shredded mozzarella cheese, shredded Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, melted butter, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Evenly spread the cheesy artichoke mixture onto the cut sides of the bread halves, covering them completely.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Switch the oven to broil for an additional 2-3 minutes to lightly brown and crisp the topping. Keep a close eye to prevent burning.
Remove from the oven and let the bread cool slightly for 2-3 minutes. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, for added color and flavor.
Slice the bread into pieces and serve warm. Enjoy your Easy Cheesy Artichoke Bread as a delicious appetizer or side dish!
