Roasted G Bread

Preheat your oven to 375ºF. Slice the top off each head of garlic so the cloves are exposed. Put them in a small oven safe dish and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Roast the garlic for about 1 hour. Check them at around 45 minutes. If they look too brown, drizzle them with a bit more olive oil and/or cover with tin foil.

Meanwhile, slice bread into 1-inch slices but do not slice all the way through. Leave a bit of bread attached on the bottom so you can rip them apart later.

Test the garlic after 1 hour with a fork. You should be able to pierce the cloves easily, the fork should slide right in and the garlic should be very soft. Once garlic is finished, remove it from the oven but do not turn your oven off. Allow the garlic to cool for a few minutes so you can handle it without burning your fingers. Once cooled, squeeze each clove of garlic out of its casing into a bowl, making sure you don’t miss any of the smaller cloves. Add your spread and Parmesan cheese. Smash the cloves with a fork and mix well.

Spread the garlic mixture onto each slice of your bread, using all of the garlic mixture. Wrap the bread in tin foil and place in the oven for about 10 minutes. If you want your bread a little crispier, uncover from the foil and put back in the oven for an additional 3-5 minutes. Once removed, keep it wrapped up in the foil so it stays hot and serve!
