You'll love how quickly it comes together on a busy weeknight!
Ingredients
- Sliced Bread: Sourdough, french, or sandwich bread.
- Butter: For an extra special treat, make homemade butter. It's easy and has such a fresh cream flavor!
- Garlic: Fresh garlic is best. We like to use a garlic press, which gives the finest mince possible. It can be substituted with garlic powder if needed.
- Chives: Any fresh herb you like can be used instead of chives.
- Cheese: A combination of mozzarella and parmesan cheese. Mozzarella gives you the melt, and parmesan adds saltiness and flavor.
Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a small bowl, mix the garlic butter ingredients and set aside.
Step 2
Slice the bread into ½" slices and spread the butter evenly on one side.
Step 3
Sprinkle the cheese on top of each slice.
Step 4
bake for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is melted and turning golden brown around the edges.
Serve the slices warm for the best taste!
How to Store
Store the bread in the fridge, wrapped in foil, for up to 2 days. After about two days, it will get pretty stale and will be very hard to soften by reheating.
To reheat, preheat the oven to 350°F (176°C). Open the foil to expose the bread. Place it in the oven until heated through and the cheese is melted for about 15 minutes.
