Ingredients

• 1 loaf baguette
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 cup Parmesan cheese
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Slice the baguette into 1/2-inch thick slices, creating about 12-15 pieces.

Step 3

Melt the butter in a small saucepan or microwave-safe dish, then stir in the garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

Using a pastry brush, generously coat one side of each baguette slice with the butter mixture and arrange them on the prepared baking sheet, buttered side up.

Step 5

Sprinkle approximately 1 to 2 teaspoons of grated Parmesan cheese over each slice, ensuring the cheese is spread evenly across the top.

Step 6

Transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges of the bread are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 7

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and immediately garnish the toasts with finely chopped fresh parsley.

Step 8

Allow the Parmesan Toasts to cool for 1-2 minutes, then serve warm as an appetizer or alongside soups and salads.
