Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup later.

Slice the baguette in half lengthwise, then slice each of those in half widthwise, creating 4 separate baguette pieces.

On each baguette piece, spread 3 tablespoons of softened butter.

Sprinkle ¼ cup of grated parmesan cheese (1 cup total for the whole baguette) onto each buttered piece of bread.

Top the cheese with a few turns of cracked black pepper and a sprinkle of chives.

Bake for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown and toasty.

Cut each baguette piece into 4 smaller pieces and serve warm.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Cheese Grating Hack 🧀
Freeze your parmesan cheese for 10-15 minutes before grating to prevent clumping and make it easier to create fine, even shreds.
Butter Spreading Technique 🧈
Let the butter sit at room temperature for 15-20 minutes before spreading to ensure smooth, even coverage without tearing the bread.
Fresh Chive Chopping Pro 🌱
Use sharp kitchen scissors to finely chop chives for more precise, uniform cuts that distribute evenly across the bread.
Crispy Crust Perfection 🥖
For an extra crispy texture, briefly toast the bread in the oven before adding toppings to create a perfect crunch.
Black Pepper Intensity 🖤
Freshly crack black pepper just before serving to release maximum flavor and aroma, using a high-quality pepper mill for the best results.
