While the butter is melting, peel and mince the garlic cloves finely.

Slice the Baguette
Cut the French baguette in half lengthwise, exposing the soft interior.

Optional Cheese Topping
If using, sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the garlic butter.

Bake in the Oven
Place the bread halves on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden and crispy.
