1
Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking the garlic bread.
2
Prepare Garlic Butter
In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the melted butter, cooking for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Stir in the chopped parsley and salt. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.

3
Slice the Bread
Carefully slice the French bread in half lengthwise, creating two long pieces.
4
Spread Garlic Butter
Using a brush or a spatula, generously spread the garlic butter mixture over the cut sides of the French bread.

5
Add Cheese
Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese evenly over the garlic buttered bread halves, followed by a sprinkling of Parmesan cheese.

6
Bake the Bread
Place the prepared garlic bread on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges of the bread are golden brown.

7
Slice and Serve
Remove the garlic bread from the oven and let it cool for a minute. Slice it into individual pieces and serve warm.
