⏱ Time & Yield

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 15–20 minutes

Total Time: 30–35 minutes

Servings: 6–8

✅ Ingredients

For the Bread:

1 large crusty baguette or ciabatta loaf

1 cup crumbled feta cheese

3 tbsp cream cheese (or Greek yogurt, for tang)

2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley or dill

1–2 tsp lemon zest (optional, for brightness)

For the Garlic Butter:

4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted

3 garlic cloves, minced

1 tbsp olive oil

1 tsp dried oregano

½ tsp chili flakes (optional)

Pinch of salt

Instructions

Preheat Oven:

Set to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with foil or parchment.

Make the Feta Filling:

In a bowl, mash together feta, cream cheese, herbs, and lemon zest until creamy but still a bit chunky.

Prepare Garlic Butter:

In a separate bowl, mix melted butter, olive oil, garlic, oregano, chili flakes, and salt.

Slice the Bread:

Make deep diagonal cuts across the bread (don’t cut all the way through). Then cut the other way to form a crosshatch pattern—creating “pockets” for stuffing.

Stuff the Bread:

Use a spoon (or piping bag for precision) to fill the feta mixture deep into the cuts.

Drizzle or brush garlic butter generously over the entire loaf, letting it seep in.

Bake:

Wrap loosely in foil and bake for 15 minutes. Uncover and bake another 5–7 minutes until the top is golden and crisp.

Serve:

Sprinkle with more herbs or chili flakes. Serve hot and pull-apart ready!

Tips for Success

Use a crusty bread that holds its shape when cut.

Soften feta by microwaving for 10–15 seconds for easier mixing.

Don’t overbake, or the bread may dry out—just enough to crisp the edges and melt the filling.

Add extras: Chopped olives, sun-dried tomatoes, or roasted red peppers can be mixed into the filling for even more flavor.

❓ Quick Q&A

Q: Can I make this ahead?
A: Yes! Stuff and wrap the bread, then refrigerate. Bake just before serving.

Q: Can I use a different cheese?
A: Sure—try goat cheese, ricotta, or a mix of mozzarella and feta for a stretchier texture.

Q: Is this freezer-friendly?
A: It’s best fresh, but you can freeze leftovers wrapped in foil and reheat in the oven.

Q: Can I use store-bought garlic bread as a shortcut?
A: Yes! Just slice and stuff it—skip the butter step and adjust baking time.
