Hey Pesto
1

a) Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

b) Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). 

c) Grate the Cheddar cheese.

d) In a medium bowl, mix together the garlic, Cheddar, grated hard Italian style cheese, pesto and the olive oil (see pantry for amount).

Prep the Baguette
2

a) Place your baguette in between two wooden spoon handles on a board. Make diagonal slices widthways at 2cm intervals, making sure not to cut the whole way through - you'll make approximately 12 cuts.

b) Pop the baguette onto a baking tray and use a teaspoon to spoon two thirds of the pesto mixture equally into each cut. TIP: Don't worry if the bread breaks when doing this, the cheese will melt and stick it back together in the oven.

Ready, Steady, Bake
3

a) Spread the remaining pesto mixture over the top of the baguette, then bake on the top shelf of your oven until the cheese is melted and slightly golden, 10-12 mins.

b) Once cooked, remove from your oven and transfer to a board. 

c) Allow to cool for 5 mins, then tear and share!

Enjoy!

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavour: Reviewers loved the gooey, cheesy garlic bread, with many calling it the best they've ever had.
  • Ease of prep: Some found it fiddly to fill between bread slices; others suggested slicing horizontally for better coverage.
  • Suggestions: Consider adding butter for more flavour; try mixing in onion with the cheese and pesto for extra taste.
  • Portions: The portion size is generous; some found it too much as a side dish for pasta.
