Scale
Ingredients
- 1 loaf garlic bread, cubed
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon white truffle oil
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F to ensure it reaches the right temperature for melting the cheeses evenly and warming the garlic bread cubes.
- Prepare Garlic Bread: Slice the garlic bread loaf into bite-sized cubes and arrange them evenly on a sheet pan, creating the base for your nachos.
- Add Cheeses: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated parmesan cheese evenly over the arranged garlic bread cubes to cover them with a rich, melty topping.
- Dollop Ricotta and Season: Place dollops of ricotta cheese around the garlic bread cubes and sprinkle the Italian seasoning over all the cheese toppings for a burst of herbal flavor.
- Bake: Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes to allow the cheeses to melt thoroughly and the garlic bread to warm through.
- Broil for Finish: After baking, turn the oven broiler to low and broil the nachos for an additional 2 minutes. This step adds a slight golden crust to the cheese for extra texture.
- Drizzle Oil: Remove the nachos from the oven and immediately drizzle with the white truffle oil to finish with an aromatic and luxurious flavor boost before serving.
Notes
- You can use store-bought or homemade garlic bread for this recipe.
- For extra spice, add a pinch of red pepper flakes before baking.
- Serve immediately for the best melty texture and flavor.
- Leftovers can be reheated in the oven but may lose some crispness.
- White truffle oil is optional but recommended for a richer taste.
