Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. 2

    Prepare the French Bread

    Cut the French bread loaf in half lengthwise, creating two long pieces of bread.

Garlic Butter Mixture

  1. 3

    Melt the Butter

    In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter.

  2. 4

    Prepare the Garlic

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

  3. 5

    Mix Ingredients

    Once the butter is melted, remove it from heat and stir in the minced garlic, chopped fresh parsley, salt, and black pepper to taste.

Assembly and Baking

  1. 6

    Spread the Garlic Butter

    Using a brush or a spoon, generously spread the garlic butter mixture over the cut sides of the French bread.

  2. 7

    Add Toppings

    If desired, sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese and shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the garlic butter.

  3. 8

    Bake the Bread

    Place the bread halves on a baking sheet, cut side up, and bake in the preheated oven for about 10-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the cheese (if added) is melted.

  4. 9

    Slice and Serve

    Remove from the oven, let cool for a minute, slice into pieces, and serve warm.
