Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 loaf Baguette or Italian bread
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, softened
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
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 or Italian bread in half lengthwise and place both pieces cut-side up on the baking sheet.
In a medium bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, smoked paprika, chopped parsley, and salt. Mix until well combined.
Using a spatula or butter knife, spread the garlic butter mixture generously over the cut sides of the bread.
In a separate bowl, mix the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheeses together.
Sprinkle the cheese mixture evenly over the garlic butter-coated bread halves.
Drizzle the tops lightly with olive oil to help the cheese melt and brown beautifully.
Place the bread in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, with golden brown edges.
Optional: Turn on the broiler for 1-2 minutes at the end of baking to get extra crisp, golden cheese on top. Keep a close eye to avoid burning.
Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool for a minute or two. Slice into pieces and serve warm. Enjoy!
