Cheesy Garlic Toast

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Cheesy Garlic Toast.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven's broiler and adjusting the rack so it sits about 6 inches from the heat source—this is where the magic happens! While the oven warms up, grab a loaf of Italian bread and slice it into ten thick, 1-inch pieces.

2. Step 2

   In a mixing bowl, combine softened butter, crushed garlic, a splash of olive oil, dried oregano, salt, and pepper.

3. Step 3

   Stir everything together until it’s a smooth, fragrant mixture that will make your kitchen smell amazing.

4. Step 4

   Now, take each slice of bread and generously spread that delicious garlic butter on one side.

5. Step 5

   Lay the slices on a baking sheet, making sure they’re butter-side up and cozy in a single layer.

6. Step 6

   Pop the baking sheet under the broiler for about 3 minutes, keeping a watchful eye as they turn a lovely golden brown—nobody likes burnt toast! Once they’re perfectly toasted, take them out and sprinkle a generous amount of shredded mozzarella cheese on top of each slice.

7. Step 7

   Slide the baking sheet back under the broiler for another 2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly with just a hint of browning.

8. Step 8

   When they’re ready, serve your cheesy garlic toast hot and enjoy every gooey, flavorful bite! This delightful treat is perfect as an appetizer or a side dish, and it’s sure to impress your family and friends.
