Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking the cheesy garlic bread.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Garlic Butter

    In a small bowl, melt the unsalted butter in the microwave or on the stovetop. Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the melted butter. Stir in the chopped fresh parsley for added flavor.

  3. 3

    Slice the Bread

    Using a serrated knife, slice the French bread in half lengthwise. Place the halves on a baking sheet with the cut side facing up.

  4. 4

    Spread the Garlic Butter

    Evenly distribute the garlic butter mixture over the cut sides of the bread, ensuring it is well-covered.

  5. 5

    Add the Cheeses

    Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese and grated Parmesan cheese generously over the top of the buttered bread.

  6. 6

    Bake the Bread

    Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges of the bread are golden brown.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Once baked, remove the cheesy garlic bread from the oven, let it cool slightly, then slice into pieces and serve warm.
