Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large round loaf of crusty bread (sourdough or Italian style)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (optional)
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Slice the loaf of bread in a crisscross pattern, ensuring you do not cut all the way through the bottom crust.
  3. In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
  4. Use a spoon or brush to carefully spread the garlic butter mixture into each cut of the bread.
  5. If using cheese, stuff the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan into the cuts along with the garlic butter.
  6. Wrap the entire loaf loosely in aluminum foil and place it on a baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the bread is heated through.
  8. Unwrap the foil from the top of the loaf and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy.
  9. Remove from the oven, let cool for a few minutes, and serve warm.

Notes

  • Fresh parsley can be substituted with dried parsley if needed.
  • For a spicier pull-apart garlic bread, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the butter mixture.
  • This garlic cheese pull apart bread is best served fresh and warm.
  • The recipe can be prepared ahead of time and reheated in the oven.
