Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Split the French bread in half lengthwise using a serrated knife.
- In a small bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter, minced garlic, dried oregano, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well mixed.
- Spread this butter mixture evenly over the cut sides of the bread, ensuring that all areas are covered.
- Place the bread halves on a baking sheet, cut side up. If you want to prevent any potential mess, consider lining the baking sheet with parchment paper first.
- Bake the bread for 12-15 minutes, or until the bread has turned golden and crispy. Keep a close eye on the bread during the last few minutes to prevent over-browning.
- Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes. This will make it easier to handle and slice.
- Slice the bread into individual servings using a serrated knife and serve warm. Enjoy the aromatic and flavorful feast of Oregano Garlic Bread!
