Main Ingredients

  • 1 loaf French bread sliced lengthwise
  • 2 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup Grated Parmesan cheese
  • ¼ cup Butter melted
  • 2 cloves Garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley chopped

Instructions 

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  3. Brush the butter mixture evenly over the cut sides of the French bread.
  4. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the buttered bread.
  5. Place the bread halves back together and cut the loaf into 1-inch slices, being careful not to cut all the way through.
  6. Twist each slice slightly to create a braided effect, then place the loaf on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
