Ingredients
- 8 slices of bread
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup grated cheese
- 1/2 cup chopped onions
- 1/4 cup chopped parsley
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a large baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
- Take the softened butter and spread it evenly on one side of each bread slice, ensuring complete coverage from edge to edge.
- Finely chop the onions and parsley, keeping them ready for layering.
- Grate the cheese using a medium grater to create uniform cheese shreds.
- Arrange the buttered bread slices on the prepared baking sheet, butter side facing up.
- Sprinkle the chopped onions evenly across each bread slice, distributing them carefully.
- Follow by generously covering the onions with the grated cheese, ensuring good coverage.
- Garnish the topped bread slices with the chopped parsley for added flavor and visual appeal.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is completely melted and the bread edges turn golden brown and crispy.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for 2-3 minutes before serving hot.
Tips
- Use room temperature butter for easier spreading and more even coverage.
- Choose a good quality, flavorful cheese like sharp cheddar or gruyère for maximum taste.
- Ensure your bread slices are evenly buttered to prevent uneven browning.
- For extra crispiness, you can briefly toast the bread before adding toppings.
- Watch the oven carefully during the last 5 minutes to prevent burning.
- Let the dish cool slightly before serving to allow the cheese to set and flavors to meld.
- For a gourmet twist, try adding crispy bacon bits or a sprinkle of herbs like thyme or rosemary.
