Ingredients
  • 1 Italian Bread Loaf
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter
  • 4 cloves Garlic
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh Parsley
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh Rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh Thyme
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 1 cup Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
  • 1/4 cup Grated Parmesan Cheese

Prepare the Herb Garlic Butter

In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 1-2 minutes, until fragrant. Stir in the chopped parsley, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper. Remove from heat.

Prepare the Bread

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Slice the Italian bread loaf lengthwise.

Assemble and Bake

Spread the herb garlic butter evenly over the cut sides of the bread. Sprinkle the mozzarella and Parmesan cheese generously over the buttered bread. Place the bread on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the bread is golden brown.

Serve

Remove the cheesy herb garlic bread from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing and serving. Serve warm with your favorite soup or stew.
