Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 loaf French baguette
- 100 grams unsalted butter
- 3 cloves garlic
- 200 grams shredded mozzarella cheese
- 50 grams grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Slice the baguette in half lengthwise and lay each half cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. While the butter is melting, finely mince the garlic.
Add the minced garlic to the melted butter and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant. Remove from heat.
Chop the fresh parsley finely and mix it into the garlic butter along with the dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Using a pastry brush or spoon, spread the garlic butter mixture evenly over the cut sides of the baguette halves.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over both halves, followed by the grated Parmesan cheese.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Switch the oven to broil and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, watching closely, until the cheese is golden and slightly crispy.
Remove the garlic cheese bread from the oven and let it cool for 1-2 minutes. Slice into smaller pieces and serve warm.
