Garlic Butter Cheese Pull-Apart Bread
Garlic Butter Cheese Pull-Apart Bread is a warm, cheesy, and buttery bread that’s perfect for sharing. A round loaf is sliced in a crisscross pattern, filled with rich garlic butter, and packed with melted cheese in every bite. The outside bakes crisp while the inside stays soft and gooey, making it great for family dinners, parties, or weekend treats. It’s easy to make, smells amazing, and disappears fast at the table.

Ingredients
- 1 bread round loaf
- ½ cup butter 125 g, melted
- 3 garlic cloves minced or pressed
- 2 cups cheese mozzarella, cheddar, or a mix (250 g), grated
- 2 tablespoon parsley 8 g, chopped fresh
- 1 teaspoon Italian herbs optional: oregano, basil (1 g)
- ½ teaspoon salt 3 g
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Take your loaf of bread and use a serrated knife to cut deep crisscross lines across the top. Do not cut all the way through, leave the bottom connected so the loaf stays together.
- In a small bowl, mix together: melted butter, garlic, salt, parsley, and Italian herbs (if you’re using them).
- Use a spoon or brush to spread the garlic butter into all the cuts. Try to get butter deep inside so every bite has flavor. Then push the grated cheese into the cracks, spreading it as evenly as you can.
- Wrap the whole loaf in foil and bake for 10–15 minutes. Then remove the foil and bake for another 5–7 minutes, until the cheese is fully melted and lightly golden.
- Serve hot. Everyone can pull pieces off by hand—no slicing needed!
