Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large French bread loaf
- 113 grams Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Ranch dressing mix
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 60 grams Grated Parmesan cheese
- 120 grams Shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the French bread loaf in half lengthwise, creating two long halves. Place them cut-side up on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
In a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter over low heat or in 20-second intervals. Stir in the ranch dressing mix, garlic powder, and chopped parsley until fully combined.
Using a pastry brush or the back of a spoon, evenly spread the butter mixture onto the cut sides of the bread halves, ensuring they are fully coated.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over both halves, followed by the shredded mozzarella cheese.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and slightly golden.
Optional: Turn on the broiler during the last 1-2 minutes for an extra crispy, golden top. Be careful not to let it burn.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes. Slice into individual pieces and serve warm.
