Bread Base

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This ensures that the garlic bread will be toasted perfectly.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Garlic Butter

    In a small bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter, minced garlic, and chopped fresh parsley. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

  3. 3

    Slice the Baguette

    Slice the French baguette in half lengthwise to create two open-faced pieces. Place the baguette halves on a baking sheet, cut side up.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Apply the Garlic Butter

    Evenly spread the garlic butter mixture over the cut sides of the baguette. Make sure to cover all areas for maximum flavor.

  2. 5

    Add the Cheese

    Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the buttered bread halves. Follow with a layer of grated Parmesan cheese.

Baking

  1. 6

    Bake the Cheesy Garlic Bread

    Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges of the bread are golden brown.

  2. 7

    Cool and Serve

    Remove from the oven and let the cheesy garlic bread cool for a minute. Cut into slices and serve warm.
