Cheese and garlic bread recipe
To prepare the garlic and cheese bread we need to flavor the butter with these ingredients. This is the best way to impregnate the bread with these seasonings. We are going to melt the butter using the microwave, and we will mix it well with the chopped garlic (although we can also use garlic powder, as you prefer).
As we start from a loaf of bread already prepared and cooked, this recipe will take us just a few minutes. And, in addition, it is very easy to prepare. So, when we have the butter, we will cut the bread, making a few cuts separating slices but without going all the way down. And, on each slice, we will spread a little of this butter with garlic to finish filling each slice with a generous handful of grated cheese.
Once prepared, we will bake for a few minutes, just enough for the cheese to melt and the bread to absorb all the butter, and we have a delicious garlic and cheese bread ready. With minimum effort and warm, just like freshly baked!
Garlic and Cheese Bread Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 load bread

Instructions
