There is nothing quite like pulling a fresh loaf of cheesy garlic bread out of the oven. It is the perfect side dish for pasta night, or you can just enjoy it on its own as a warm and gooey snack.

My secret to the best flavor is using real butter and fresh garlic. If you want an extra kick, feel free to add a sprinkle of dried parsley or red pepper flakes before you slide the bread into the oven.

Ingredients

  • 1 loaf French bread or sourdough, cut in half lengthwise
  • 1/2 cup salted butter, softened
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

  2. 2

    In a small bowl, mix the softened butter, minced garlic, and chopped parsley until smooth.

  3. 3

    Spread the garlic butter mixture evenly over the cut sides of the bread.

  4. 4

    Place the bread on a baking sheet and sprinkle the mozzarella and parmesan cheeses over the top.

  5. 5

    Bake for about 10 to 12 minutes until the bread is toasted and the cheese is melted and bubbling.

  6. 6

    Turn the oven to broil for 1 or 2 minutes if you want the cheese to get a little extra golden brown.

  7. 7

    Slice into pieces and serve warm.

💡 Tips

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days. Reheat the bread in the oven or a toaster oven to get the edges crispy again instead of using the microwave.
