1
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2
Prepare the Bread
Slice the French bread in half lengthwise, creating two long pieces of bread.

3
Soften the Butter
In a medium bowl, let the unsalted butter sit at room temperature until softened.
4
Mince Garlic
Peel and mince the garlic cloves finely.
5
Mix Ingredients
Add the minced garlic, chopped fresh parsley, salt, and black pepper to the softened butter. Mix until well combined.

6
Spread Garlic Butter
Evenly spread the garlic butter mixture on the cut sides of the French bread.
7
Add Cheese
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese and mozzarella cheese evenly over the buttered bread.
8
Bake the Bread
Place the bread halves on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
9
Broil for Finish
For an extra crispy top, switch the oven to broil for the last 2-3 minutes, watching closely to prevent burning.

10
Slice and Serve
Remove the garlic bread from the oven, let it cool for a minute, then slice into pieces and serve warm.
