Step 3: Spread the Butter on the Bread

Lay the slices of Texas toast on the baking sheet.

Using a knife or spatula, spread a generous layer of the garlic butter over each slice.
Make sure to cover the edges—this ensures every bite is flavorful.

Step 4: Add the Cheese Topping

In a separate bowl, mix the mozzarella and cheddar together.

Sprinkle the cheese mixture evenly over the buttered bread.
Don’t be shy with the cheese—this is Cheesy Texas Toast after all!

Step 5: Bake Until Golden

Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake for:

• 8–10 minutes for soft bread with melted cheese
• 10–12 minutes for crispy edges and lightly browned cheese

If you want extra browning, turn on the broiler for 30–60 seconds, watching closely so it doesn’t burn.

Step 6: Serve and Enjoy

Remove the toast from the oven and let it cool for 1–2 minutes.
The cheese will settle slightly, creating that perfect stretchy texture.

Serve with:

• pasta dishes
• steak or grilled chicken
• soup or chili
• or simply as a delicious snack

⭐ Tips for the Best Cheesy Texas Toast

• Use freshly shredded cheese for the best melt—pre-shredded cheese contains anti-caking agents.
• If you love garlic, add an extra clove or a dash of garlic salt.
• Add a sprinkle of Italian seasoning, paprika, or parmesan for extra flavor.
• For a crispier bottom, preheat the baking sheet before placing the bread on it.
