Gooey Garlic Bread

When I buy garlic bread at the store, I think it’s because I forget how easy it is to make it myself.  Using chunks of pressed garlic, melted butter and a baguette that’s ready to soak all of that up is not difficult.  To make it even better, adding Ivanhoe aged cheddar gives it that sharper taste with a gooey bite that’s hard to resist.

The next time I go to buy garlic bread I will pause and plan to do this instead!

Gooey Garlic Bread

Ingredients:

1 Whole Wheat Baguette, halved (use all of it if you have more than 2 or 3 people eating it!)

1 clove of garlic

2 tbsp butter

1/3 cup grated Ivanhoe Aged Cheddar Cheese

Directions

Slice the baguette length wise.

In a small, microwavable bowl, press the clove of garlic, or finely chop it. Add the butter and melt.

Combine the melted butter and garlic. Using a brush, generously brush over the baguette. Be sure to add those pieces of garlic on top!

Top with grated cheese.

Bake at 375 for about 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the baguette is crisping.

Enjoy!
