The Best Easy Cheesy Garlic Bread – Golden, Gooey, and Irresistible!

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Step 2: Prepare the Garlic Butter
In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, Parmesan cheese, oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Step 3: Slice the Bread
Slice the baguette or Italian bread in half lengthwise. You can also cut it into smaller sections if you prefer individual pieces.
Step 4: Spread the Garlic Butter
Spread the garlic butter mixture evenly over the cut sides of the bread, ensuring every inch is covered.
Step 5: Add the Cheese
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the garlic buttered bread. For extra cheesiness, feel free to add more cheese!
Step 6: Bake the Bread
Place the prepared bread on the baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges of the bread are golden and crispy.
Step 7: Garnish and Serve
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool slightly. If desired, sprinkle with fresh parsley for a burst of color and added flavor.
Slice and serve immediately. Enjoy with your favorite pasta, soup, or as a standalone snack!
