Prepare the Garlic Butter. Set it aside until the oven is preheated to 450 F with the rack in middle position.
Place the Italian or French Bread on a baking tray and slice in half lengthwise. Slather the Garlic Butter on really good. Optionally add cheese on top.
Place into the oven open-faced for about 5 minutes, or until crisp to your liking. Optionally broil the top for more color during the last minute. Remove and slice into serving size.
Notes
For a Softer & Chewy Bread, wrap in tinfoil and bake 5 minutes for Fresh and 10 minutes or until softened for Frozen. Unwrap and flip so that they are facing up, and continue to Bake or Broil until crisp to your liking.Bread Slices can also be brushed with Garlic Butter and toasted in the oven.
