Cheesy Garlic Bread

Cheesy Garlic Bread

One of the best and most delicious side dishes for dinner is this cheesy garlic bread. It’s perfectly toasted and packed with mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, fresh minced garlic, and herbs. So good!

Essentially, you mix together softened butter, the two cheese, fresh garlic, herbs, salt, and pepper. Then, spread it onto slices of baguette and throw it into the oven to get deliciously melty and crispy.

You can do this with different types of bread and different types of cheeses if you wish, but one thing you can’t compromise on is the fresh garlic. If you use garlic powder, you won’t get as good of a garlic flavor.

I have some other side dish options to make your dinner great, including smashed potatoes, spiced roasted potatoes, and homemade mac and cheese. I also have some great recipes for salads and veggies on the blog.

Ingredients

  • 6 slices bread (baguette)
  • 1/2 cup softened butter
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 1 tsp dried or fresh oregano
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1 head garlic (8 large cloves), minced finely
  • 4 tbsp parmesan cheese, grated

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375ºF and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Mix together the butter, salt, pepper, oregano, parsley, mozzarella, cheddar, and minced garlic. Spread it evenly on one side of each of the 6 bread pieces. Arrange on the baking sheet and sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
  3. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the cheese is fully melted and the bread is toasted and crispy. Enjoy!
