Ingredients

  • 4 clove garlic
  • 1/2 stick butter
  • 1 tbsp basil
  • 1 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella, or pizza cheese mix
  • 1 loaf Italian bread or ciabatta bread, not sliced

Method

  • Preheat oven to 400F
  • Finely chop the garlic
  • In a pan, on medium low heat, add the butter and garlic.
  • Make sure not to burn butter.
  • Once butter is melted, add basil and simmer for another 5 minutes
  • Slice the bread in half the long way, so there is a top and a bottom.
  • Spread the garlic mixture over the bottom half of bread.
  • Leave a little to spread on the top half.
  • You can spread it with a brush or a spoon.
  • Evenly spread the cheese across the bottom half, filling in air pockets in the bread for that extra surprise.
  • ;-)
  • Put the bread on a baking rack, on a cookie sheet.
  • Bake for approximately 20 minutes or until cheese is melted through.
  • You can check by lifting the top half off, if it comes off, you need more time.
  • When finished, remove bread and slice into an inch to an inch and a half slices.
  • Makes 8 - 10 slices.
