Directions

Set the oven to broil at 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
In a small saucepan, combine the olive oil, butter and garlic. Set over medium heat, and cook until butter has melted and the mixture starts to bubble. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat.
Dip each slice of bread into the garlic mixture, turning to coat each side. Place Parmesan cheese on a plate. Press one side of each piece of bread into the cheese, and place cheese side up on a baking sheet.
Broil on the middle rack of the preheated oven for about 8 minutes, or until golden brown.

"I make this a little differently now that I've experimented a little bit- I don't dip the bread into the mixture. I brush it on with a pastry brush and only to one side. I also just sprinkle the parm..." See moreesan on, it seems easier. The flavor is great and the original recipe for the butter/ oil mix is perfect."

"This turned out very buttery - too greasy for me. I would recommend brushing the butter mixture on with a brush rather than dipping the bread directly in the butter...." See more"

"Quick! Easy! Yummy! Instead of rolling the bread in the cheese I just placed little piles of it on the bread. It seemed easier and worked okay...." See more"
