Follow this simple recipe to make buttery, garlicky bread slices topped with melted cheese using standard sandwich bread.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 slices sandwich bread
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, dried parsley, and salt. Mix until fully combined.
  3. Spread the garlic butter mixture evenly over one side of each slice of bread.
  4. Arrange the bread slices, butter-side up, on the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Bake for 5 minutes until the edges start to lightly brown.
  6. Remove the sheet from the oven. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese evenly over the buttered side of each slice. Top with the Parmesan cheese.
  7. Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for another 5 to 7 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
  8. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For crispier edges, you can briefly broil the bread for the last minute, watching carefully to prevent burning.
  • You can substitute cheddar cheese for mozzarella if you prefer a sharper flavor.
  • If you do not have fresh garlic, use 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder in the butter mixture.
