Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Slice the French bread or Italian bread loaf in half lengthwise.
Step 3
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, grated Parmesan, chopped parsley, olive oil, salt, and black pepper until well blended.

Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 8–10 minutes, or until the edges of the bread start to turn golden brown.
