Garlic Melts Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

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

  2. 2

    Prepare the Garlic Butter

    Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in oregano, salt, and pepper.

  3. 3

    Slice the Baguette

    Cut the French baguette into 6 equal pieces, slicing each piece horizontally.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Melts

    Spread the garlic butter mixture generously on the cut sides of the baguette pieces. Sprinkle mozzarella and parmesan cheese evenly over each piece. If using, add pepperoni, green chiles, or any additional toppings.

  5. 5

    Bake

    Place the prepared baguette pieces on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove from the oven and serve hot with marinara sauce on the side for dipping.
