Garlic Bread with Texas Toast & Cheese

by

Ingredients

  • 8 slices Texas Toast (thick bread slices)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3–4 cloves garlic, minced (or 1 1/2 tsp garlic powder)
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (or a mix of mozzarella & cheddar)
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
  2. Make garlic butter: In a bowl, mix softened butter, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and parsley until smooth.
  3. Spread: Evenly spread the garlic butter over one side of each Texas Toast slice.
  4. Add cheese: Sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan evenly on top of each buttered slice.
  5. Bake: Arrange slices on the baking sheet and bake for 8–10 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly.
  6. Optional broil: For a golden top, switch the oven to broil for the last 1–2 minutes—watch closely to prevent burning.
  7. Serve: Remove from oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm.

If you want, I can also give you a quick skillet version so you can make cheesy garlic bread without turning on the oven. Would you like me to add that?
