Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large round loaf of crusty bread (sourdough recommended)
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • 8 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chives, finely chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Optional: 1 cup shredded mozzarella or parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a bowl, mix softened butter with minced garlic, parsley, chives, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  3. Cut the bread in diagonal slashes about 1 inch apart without cutting through the bottom crust.
  4. Create crosshatch cuts by rotating the loaf and cutting in the opposite direction.
  5. Spread the garlic butter mixture between the cuts and sprinkle cheese if desired.
  6. Wrap the loaf in aluminum foil, leaving the top slightly open for crisping.
  7. Bake on a baking sheet for about 15-20 minutes; then unwrap and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes until golden brown.
  8. Let cool slightly before serving warm.
