Cheesy Garlic Bread
Grab a beer, grab a napkin (that melted garlic butter dripping off your chin is a swine) and indulge. You deserve a treat ...

Ingredients
Scale
- 2 medium sized baguettes (mine were 35cm (14") long)
- 200g (7oz) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 6 cloves of garlic, crushed or grated
- a few sprigs of parsley, finely chopped
- 75g (3oz) parmesan, finely grated + a little extra to sprinkle over the top
- a little freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C/160°C Fan/350°F (gas mark 4).
- Carefully slice the baguettes in chunky slices being sure not to cut all the way through. Lay each baguette on a large piece of foil which is big enough to wrap the whole loaf.
- Now combine the butter, garlic, parsley and parmesan in a small bowl (saving a bit of the parmesan for later) and mix well. Season with a little freshly ground black pepper.
- Divide the garlic butter between the 2 loaves and squidge it between the slices with a knife.
- Sprinkle each loaf with the remaining cheese and wrap the foil around the loaf, keeping the join along the top.
- Bake in the oven for 12-15 mins and then for a further 3 minutes with the foil opened up. Alternatively, pop the baguette(s) in the freezer until you are ready to eat them.
- Enjoy!
Notes
This recipe makes 2 loaves - one for now and one for the freezer.
