1/2 cup pizza sauce
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1 cup sliced pepperoni
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
Step 2: Prepare the Bread
Cut the French bread in half lengthwise and place both halves, cut side up, on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 3: Add the Sauce and Cheese
Spread pizza sauce evenly over each half of the bread. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the sauce, making sure to cover the entire surface.
Step 4: Add the Pepperoni and Seasonings
Arrange the sliced pepperoni evenly over the cheese. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese, dried oregano, dried basil, and garlic powder.
Step 5: Bake
Drizzle the melted butter over the top of the bread. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges of the bread are golden brown.
