Description

This roasted garlic bread is made with Italian bread slathered with a buttery roasted garlic spread with Parmesan cheese, broiled until golden crisp.

Ingredients

3 heads garlic
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 (1 pound) loaf Italian bread
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2 Slice the tops off of garlic heads, so the tip of each clove is exposed. Place garlic heads, cut-sides up, on a baking sheet; drizzle tops with olive oil.
3 Bake in the preheated oven until garlic is soft, about 30 minutes.
4 Set the oven to broil.
5 Slice bread loaf in half horizontally; place cut-side up on a baking sheet.
6 Squeeze garlic cloves from their skins into a medium bowl. Stir in butter, Parmesan cheese, and parsley until well blended. Spread onto the cut sides of bread.
7 Broil bread until toasted, about 5 minutes.
