The Best Cheesy Bread
The key to this cheesy bread is making a quick garlic-herb butter to toast the bread before piling on the cheese and sticking it under the broiler. That last step is what gets the cheese all bubbly and golden-brown. It comes together in just a few minutes.
Ingredients
- 1 large ciabatta loaf
- 2 sticks salted butter 1 cup
- 3 cloves garlic finely minced
- 2 tablespoons finely minced fresh parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 cups shredded provolone cheese
- 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- Fresh cracked pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F.
- Melt butter with garlic, parsley, oregano, and pepper in saucepan over low heat.
- Slice ciabatta lengthwise and place on baking sheet.
- Brush both cut sides with garlic butter mixture.
- Bake 10-12 minutes until top feels firm.
- Switch oven to broil.
- Cover bread with provolone and Parmesan cheeses.
- Broil 2-4 minutes until cheese melts and browns slightly.
- Cool 1 minute before slicing and serving.
Notes
Watch carefully during broiling to prevent burning.
