Garlic Parmesan Roasted Bread

Firstly, preheat your oven to a high temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit (or equivalently, 175 degrees Celsius).

To begin preparing the garlic, carefully slice off the tops of whole garlic heads, revealing the individual cloves within. Place these garlic heads cut-side up on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper; then, gently drizzle the exposed surfaces with olive oil.

Next, bake the garlic in the preheated oven for approximately 30 minutes, or until it reaches a tender state.

After the garlic has softened, switch your oven to the broil setting.

To prepare the bread, slice a standard-sized loaf of bread in half lengthwise; place this cut-side up on the same baking sheet used for the garlic.

While the bread is still warm from being removed from the oven, extract the soft garlic cloves from their skin membranes and transfer them to a medium-sized bowl. Combine these minced garlic cloves with softened butter, grated Parmesan cheese, and chopped parsley in a thorough mixing motion until the ingredients are harmoniously blended.

Finally, spread this garlic-infused butter mixture evenly onto the cut sides of the bread loaf.
