Roasted Garlic Cheesy Bread

Roasted garlic baguette with melted mozzarella, Parmesan and fresh oregano.

Ingredients

• Garlic Bread — 1 Large French Baguette
• Garlic Bread — 1 Whole Garlic Bulb
• Garlic Bread — 4-6 oz Freshly Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
• Garlic Bread — ¼ cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
• Garlic Bread — 2 Tbsp Fresh Oregano Minced
• Garlic Bread — 3 Tbsp Salted Butter Melted
• Garlic Bread — 3 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil Plus Extra for Seasoning the Garlic
• Garlic Bread — Kosher Salt for Seasoning the Garlic
• Garlic Bread — Coarse Ground Black Pepper for Seasoning the Garlic and Bread

Method

1. ROAST THE GARLIC: Heat the oven to 400°F. Cut the garlic bulb in half crosswise. Rub the exposed cloves with a little olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Wrap in foil and bake for 45 minutes.
2. PREPARE THE BREAD: Trim the ends from the baguette and split lengthwise. Place both halves on a sheet pan. Mix the melted butter and 3 Tbsp olive oil. Squeeze in the roasted garlic and mash with a fork, then whisk to combine.
3. TOP: Spread the garlic mixture evenly over both halves, brushing it into any dry spots. Add the mozzarella and Parmesan, then the oregano and a pinch of pepper.
4. BAKE: Bake for 12–15 minutes, until the cheese melts and the bread browns. Slice and serve.
