Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 375°F. Mix softened butter with minced garlic, chopped rosemary, Parmesan, salt, and pepper in a small bowl until combined.

  2. Step 2

    Using a serrated knife, cut the bread in a crosshatch pattern without cutting all the way through the bottom—aim for 1-inch cubes that still hold together.

  3. Step 3

    Spread the garlic-butter mixture into every crevice and cut, working it between the bread pieces with a small spoon or butter knife.

  4. Step 4

    Place the loaf on a sheet pan lined with foil. Wrap the foil loosely around the sides to catch any dripping butter.

  5. Step 5

    Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until the bread is golden and the butter is sizzling, then unwrap the foil and broil for 1 minute to crisp the top.

  6. Step 6

    Serve hot. Pull apart pieces with your fingers and enjoy the melted Parmesan and garlicky butter inside.
