Ingredients
- 1 loaf French bread
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 3 pieces garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons parsley (fresh, finely chopped)
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese (shredded)
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Cut the French bread loaf in half lengthwise and place both halves cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 3
In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter (about 20-30 seconds).
Step 4
Mince the garlic cloves and stir them into the melted butter along with the parsley, salt, and black pepper.
Step 5
Use a pastry brush or spoon to spread the garlic butter mixture evenly over both halves of the bread.
Step 6
Generously sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the buttered bread, followed by the grated Parmesan cheese.
Step 7
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and slightly golden.
Step 8
For extra crispiness, switch the oven to broil for an additional 1-2 minutes, keeping an eye on it to prevent burning.
Step 9
Remove the garlic bread from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes. Slice into individual portions and serve warm.
