Staci's Cheesy Roasted-Garlic Crack Bread image

I originally got making up a hopped-up bread idea from Pinterest. My household however loves cheese, and garlic, and I have really cranked it up with extra cheese and red pepper flakes, and roasted garlic spread! I made this for Thanksgiving as an appetizer, and it got DEMOLISHED ( which is why I don't have a pic to post of it...

Time 1h50m

Number Of Ingredients 1

cheese, garlic, bread, butter, olive oil.. see step one !

Steps:

  • 1. Ingredients: 1 loaf hearty-crusty bread, I used Italian 2 ½ sticks salted butter Large head of Elephant Garlic Olive oil to drizzle over garlic for roasting Cavender's Greek Seasoning Sea Salt or Pink Himalayan Salt Red Pepper Flakes Mozzarella Cheese - full fat 1 ½ - 2 cups Parmesan Cheese - the good stuff. Shreds work great. About ¾ - 1 cup.
  • 2. Preheat your oven to 400. Cut and peel the entire head of garlic, and place in a cover-able dish. Sprinkle with some salt. Drizzle olive oil over garlic and toss lightly. Cover and roast for about 30 - 40 minutes. The garlic will caramelize, you WANT this !
  • 3. While your garlic is roasting, cross hatch your bread all the way to the bottom, but not all the way through. Place on a sheet of tin foil that is large enough you will be able to seal the whole loaf to bake. Melt your butter and set aside. You can actually just let it sit out and get really soft instead of melting, as you will be mixing it with the spices and garlic and a spread can be easier to deal with than painting with something melted.
  • 4. When the garlic is done, ( and you do not have to use it all for the recipe!! You can save some and use for bruschetta another day, it keeps in the fridge for at least a week ), you are going to mix the Greek seasoning, butter, ½ the Parmesan cheese, salt and red pepper flakes to taste, until well combined. Then start spreading or painting both sides of all your cross-hatched bread. Once you've done that, start stuffing all the cross-hatches with Mozzarella, and top with Parmesan. Drizzle/paint a little mixture over the top, seal up the bread as tightly as you can without compromising the cheese getting stuck to the tinfoil.
  • 5. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Open the tinfoil, sprinkle on a little more Parmesan cheese, and bake exposed for about 5-10 minutes, or until the bread is browned to your liking and the cheese is melty ooey-gooey !!!!!!!!!! Pull from the oven, and Mangia !!!!

This bread is so good, it's dangerous. I could easily eat the whole loaf in one sitting.
