Ingredients
Ingredient Quantity
Texas Toast or thick white bread 4 slices
Grated cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or blend) 1/2 cup
Unsalted butter, melted 2 tablespoons
Garlic, minced (optional) 2 cloves
Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven & Arrange Bread
Set your oven to 400°F (205°C). Lay the slices of bread on a baking sheet, spaced slightly apart.
2. Make Garlic Butter
In a small bowl, stir together the melted butter and minced garlic, if using.
3. Butter & Add Cheese
Brush both sides of the bread with the garlic butter mixture. Then, top each slice with a generous layer of grated cheese.
4. Bake to Perfection
Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges of the toast are crisp and golden.
5. Serve Hot
Remove from the oven and enjoy while warm—on its own or as a savory side.
