Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole round loaf of bread (such as sourdough or boule)
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 whole garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives, chopped
- 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Using a serrated knife, carefully cut the loaf of bread into a grid pattern without slicing all the way through. Make 1-inch cuts both vertically and horizontally, leaving the bottom crust intact.
Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir in the minced garlic, chopped parsley, chives, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Let the mixture cook for 1-2 minutes to infuse the flavors but do not let the garlic brown.
Place the loaf of bread on the prepared baking sheet. Gently separate the cut sections and drizzle the garlic-herb butter mixture evenly into the cracks of the bread.
Stuff the shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese into the bread crevices, making sure to distribute it as evenly as possible for a cheesy pull-apart experience.
Wrap the entire loaf loosely with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.
Unwrap the bread and bake for an additional 5 minutes or until the cheese is fully melted and the top of the bread is golden and crisp.
Carefully transfer the bread to a serving platter and let it cool slightly before serving. Encourage guests to pull apart pieces of the bread to enjoy its gooey, cheesy goodness.
