Submitted by: admin on April 2, 2020

Serves 6 To 8

Ingredients

5 medium garlic cloves, peeled and grated
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1⁄2 teaspoon water
1⁄4 teaspoon salt
1⁄4 teaspoon pepper
1 (18 to 20-inch) baguette, halved horizontally
1-1⁄2 cups shredded Italian cheese blend

Instructions

  1. Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and heat oven to 400 degrees. Cook garlic, 1 tablespoon butter, and water in 8-inch nonstick skillet over low heat, stirring occasionally, until straw-colored, 7 to 10 minutes.
  2. Mix hot garlic, remaining 7 tablespoons butter, salt, and pepper in bowl and spread on cut sides of bread. Sandwich bread back together and wrap loaf in aluminum foil. Place on baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes.
  3. Carefully unwrap bread and place halves, buttered sides up, on baking sheet. Bake until just beginning to color, about 10 minutes. Remove from oven and set oven to broil.
  4. Sprinkle bread with cheese. Broil until cheese has melted and bread is crisp, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer bread to cutting board with cheese side facing down. Cut into pieces and serve.
