To make a scrumptious baked tray of cheesy garlic bread, gather the following ingredients:
- 1 large loaf of French or Italian bread
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper, to taste
These ingredients are easy to find at your local grocery store. Plus, they open the door to endless variations, which I love to explore!
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Combine butter, garlic, parsley, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
- Slice the loaf of bread in half lengthwise.
- Spread the garlic butter mixture on both halves of the bread.
- Sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan cheese over the buttered bread.
- Bake for 15 minutes, or until cheese is bubbly and golden; broil for an extra 1-2 minutes if desired.
- Let cool, slice, and serve warm.
Notes
- For added flavor, consider mixing in other herbs or spices with the garlic butter.
- Try different types of cheese for a unique twist.
