Equipment

  • Serrated Knife
  • Parchment Paper
  • Cookie Sheet

Ingredients
  

  • 1 large Italian Loaf
  • 4 oz Shredded Cheese
  • ½ stick Butter melter
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 tsp Dried Parsley Flakes
  • 1 tsp Oregano
  • Salt and Pepper to taste (I used 1/4 tsp each)

Instructions
 

  • Using a serrated knife, cut slits down your bread using a cross hatch-like design. Making the cuts wide enough to leave bite sized chunks of bread. I left about a 1"-2" space between each. No need to be perfect during this step! Just don't cut all the way through the bottom!
  • Once you've finished cutting your bread, begin gently stuffing the cracks of your loaf of bread with your shredded cheese.
  • Next, melt your butter in a microwave safe bowl. This only takes a few seconds in your microwave!
  • Stir all of your spices into your butter and begin spooning or basting over your bread, focusing on each opening.
  • Bake at 375 for about 10-20 minutes, depending on your oven and preferred doneness! We like our bread soft, warm, and melty. If you like your bread crunchy, go for a little longer than 10 minutes!

Notes

Tips

  • You can use any cheese for this recipe - mozzarella, white cheddar, colby, monterey, and so on. The stretchier, the better. But, whatever you have on hand works! 
  • If you don't have butter on hand, you can replace it with a neutral tasting oil.
