Step 2: Get the Garlic Butter ready.
Combine the softened butter, olive oil, salt, black pepper, oregano, minced garlic, garlic powder, red pepper flakes (if using), and fresh parsley in a small bowl. Stir until all ingredients are fully blended into a tasty, creamy spread.
Step 3: Cut the bread into slices.
Cut your loaf of Italian or French bread in half lengthwise. Cut the halves in half if you want your food in smaller bits. On the baking sheet that has been prepared, place the bread cut-side up.

Spread the garlic butter in step four.
Cover the entire surface of the bread by evenly spreading the prepared garlic butter mixture over the cut sides. Your bread will be thicker and more savory if you add extra butter.
Step 5: Include the cheese
Evenly distribute the shredded mozzarella cheese, then the shredded cheddar and grated Parmesan on top of the buttered bread. A nicely melted and tasty topping will result from the combination of the cheeses.
Step 6: Make the Bread
After the oven has been warmed, put the baking sheet in and bake it for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the cheese is completely melted and bubbling.
Step 7: Optional Extra Crispiness by Broiling
For the final two to three minutes, turn the oven to broil if you want a golden-brown, slightly crunchy cheese coating. Watch the bread carefully so it doesn't burn.
Step 8: Present and Garnish
For a splash of color and freshness, take the bread out of the oven and top it with extra parsley or fresh basil. Before cutting into separate pieces, allow it to cool for a minute.

Tips for Storing and Warming Up:
Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to three days in an airtight container or wrap them in foil, though this is doubtful. To reheat, put the slices in an oven that has been prepared to 350°F (175°C) for approximately five minutes, or until they are warm and crispy.
Wrap the bread tightly in aluminum foil and plastic wrap for extended storage, and then freeze it for up to two months. When ready to eat, bake directly from the freezer for 10 to 12 minutes at 375°F (190°C).
