    Best bread 

    I always use french bread. It gives perfect texture. You can use Italian or any variety of bread.

    Should I cover the bread in cling wrap?

    Yes, if you are slicing the bread in advance for a party/get-together.  bread might turn dry if you didn't cover it.

    softened butter

    Always use softened butter, it gives the best crispy and tasty bread.  Avoid oil. Also, avoid melting the butter and spread. 

    Can I use garlic powder?

    Yes but freshly crushed garlic gives the best taste so I would highly recommend it.

    Can I prepare bread immediately after mixing the garlic-butter

    Yes but just make sure the butter is in spreadable consistency. If you are planning to make this for dinner parties/get-togethers, mix the garlic- butter and keep it at room temperature till we use it. I have kept it for 6 hours. Mix the cheese just before baking.

    Can I skip cheese?

    Yes cheese is optional but gives good texture  and taste to homemade garlic bread 

    This is a batch of bread I made without cheese

    Cheese variety to use

    I use parmesan cheese. The texture and taste of the bread might vary based on the cheese you use.

    Tricks to keep it crispy for a few hours

     tastes best when served immediately. If you are planning to bake in advance, keep it inside the oven till you serve so that it tastes crispy and best.

    Ingredients

    half loaf of french bread, sliced around 1-inch of bread

    7 big garlic, finely chopped

    5 tablespoon butter softened butter

    1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning

    How to make cheesy bread with step-by-step pictures

    • First Combine minced garlic, butter, and Italian seasoning; mix well

    • If the butter is in spreadable consistency you can prepare the garlic bread immediately else keep the mixture at room temperature till it comes to that stage
    • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit 
    • Cut the bread around 1-inch pieces. To make it kids friendly I have halved each 1-inch piece
    • Just before baking, add parmesan cheese; mix well

    • Spread the garlic butter spread on one side of each bread piece

    • Cook for 10 -11 minutes. serve hot
