Description
Cheesy Garlic Pull-Apart Bread is a warm, golden-brown loaf that offers a delightful crunch on the outside, giving way to a soft, fluffy interior. Each pull-apart piece is infused with rich garlic butter and gooey melted cheese, creating a savory explosion of flavor that tantalizes the taste buds.
Ingredients
- Bread: 1 large round sourdough loaf
- Garlic Butter: 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
1/2 teaspoon salt - Cheese: 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, minced garlic, parsley, and salt until well combined.
- Using a serrated knife, make diagonal cuts in the bread, creating a crisscross pattern without cutting all the way through.
- Carefully brush the garlic butter mixture into the cuts of the bread, ensuring it seeps into the crevices.
- Stuff the shredded mozzarella and Parmesan cheese into the cuts of the bread.
- Wrap the loaf in aluminum foil and bake for 15 minutes.
- Unwrap the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the bread is golden brown.
- Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm.
Notes
- This bread can be prepared a few hours in advance; just cover it tightly with foil and bake when ready.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
- For a healthier option, substitute whole wheat bread for sourdough.
