Ingredients
  

  • 1 loaf crusty Italian bread
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Pinch of black pepper
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese optional

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven.

  • Set your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Prepare the bread.

  • Slice the Italian bread lengthwise. Do not cut all the way through. The slices should stay connected.

Make the garlic butter.

  • Melt the butter in a small pan. Add minced garlic. Stir well. Mix in parsley and oregano. Add salt and pepper.

Spread the butter mixture.

  • Brush the garlic butter onto the bread slices. Get into all the cracks.

Add cheese (optional).

  • Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the buttered bread.

Bake the bread.

  • Place the bread on a baking sheet. Bake for 10-15 minutes. It should be golden brown. The edges will be crispy.

Serve warm.

  • Remove from oven. Let it cool slightly. Slice and enjoy!

Notes

  • Use fresh garlic for best flavor.
  • Do not burn the garlic.
  • Fresh herbs are always better.
  • A good quality Italian bread helps.
  • Don't overbake the bread.
