Broiled Cheesy Garlic Baguette Bites

Ingredients

- 1 Baguette, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
- 1/2 cup Butter, softened
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 3 Scallions, finely chopped
- 3/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 tablespoons fresh Parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Hot sauce (or to taste)
- 1/4 teaspoon Salt
- 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper, freshly ground

Instructions

1. Preparation:
- Begin by preheating your broiler to high. Arrange the oven rack about 4 to 6 inches from the heat source for optimal broiling.

2. Prepare Garlic Butter Mixture:
- In a medium bowl, combine the softened butter with minced garlic, chopped scallions, hot sauce, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well incorporated.

3. Prepare Baguette Slices:
- Spread each baguette slice generously with the prepared garlic butter mixture. Ensure the mixture is applied evenly for consistent flavor.

4. Add Parmesan and Parsley:
- Sprinkle a generous amount of grated Parmesan cheese over each slice. Follow with a light sprinkle of chopped parsley for added flavor and color.

5. Broil:
- Arrange the prepared baguette slices on a baking sheet.
- Place the sheet under the broiler and broil for approximately 2 to 3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the edges of the baguette are golden brown. Keep a close watch to prevent burning.

6. Serve:
- Once broiled to perfection, remove the baking sheet from the oven.
- Allow to cool slightly before serving.

7. Garnish:
- Optionally garnish with additional chopped parsley before serving.
