Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Cheesy Garlic Stuffed Italian Bread.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, blend together the melted butter, finely chopped parsley, olive oil, and minced garlic until the mixture is harmonious.
Step 3
Take your loaf of Italian bread and slice it diagonally every 2 inches, being careful not to cut all the way through the bottom crust.
Step 4
Next, create a second diagonal cut in the opposite direction to form cube-shaped sections that remain connected at the base.
Step 5
Gently spread the flavorful butter mixture between each section of the bread, ensuring every piece is generously coated.
Step 6
Then, fill the gaps with a delightful blend of shredded Italian cheese.
Step 7
Wrap the entire loaf snugly in aluminum foil to lock in moisture during baking.
Step 8
Place the wrapped loaf in your preheated oven and let it bake for 15 minutes.
Step 9
After this initial baking, unwrap the loaf and allow it to bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is gloriously melted and bubbling.
Step 10
Enjoy the irresistible aroma as it fills your kitchen, promising a delicious treat ahead.
