Crispy on the outside, soft and buttery on the inside, this homemade Texas Toast elevates any meal with its perfect garlic flavor and touch of Parmesan cheese.
Spread butter evenly on both sides of the 4 bread slices.
Lightly sprinkle garlic powder on both sides of the bread slices.
Place the buttered bread on a baking sheet.
Put the bread in the oven under the broiler. The bread will toast for 1 to 3 minutes. The closer the bread is to the broiler the faster it will toast.
Once the first side is toasted, remove it from the oven.
Flip over the bread to where the untoasted side is up.
Sprinkle about 1 teaspoon of cheese on each slice of bread.
Return the bread to the oven.
Toast the bread until it is golden brown.
Recipe Tips
For best results, watch the bread carefully while broiling as broilers vary greatly in heat intensity. If you don't have thick-sliced bread, ask your grocery store bakery to cut a loaf of Italian bread into 1-inch slices.
