Garlic Cheese Toast Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

1

Prepare the Garlic Butter

In a small bowl, mix the softened unsalted butter with minced garlic, salt, black pepper, chopped parsley, and chopped basil until well combined.

2

Prepare the Bread

Slice the Italian bread in half lengthwise. Spread the garlic butter mixture evenly over the cut sides of the bread.

3

Add Cheese

Sprinkle the house cheese blend generously over the garlic buttered bread.

4

Bake the Toast

Place the bread on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges of the bread are golden brown.

5

Serve

Remove the toast from the oven, let it cool for a minute, then cut into slices and serve warm.
