Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 loaf French baguette or Italian bread
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon parsley, chopped (optional)
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Slice the baguette or Italian bread lengthwise into two halves and set them aside on a baking sheet, cut side up.
In a medium bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley (if desired), salt, and black pepper. Mix until well blended.
Spread the garlic butter mixture evenly over the cut sides of the bread halves.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the bread, followed by the grated Parmesan cheese.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 6-8 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges of the bread are golden brown.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool for about 2 minutes.
Slice into smaller portions and serve immediately. Enjoy your Fast and Easy Garlic Cheese Bread!
