Ingredients
Scale
Bread Rollups:
- 8 slices white or whole wheat sandwich bread (crusts removed)
Cheese Filling:
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Garlic Butter Mixture:
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley or 1 tsp dried parsley (plus a pinch of salt)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Flatten each slice of bread with a rolling pin until thin.
- Sprinkle mozzarella and cheddar evenly across the bottom third of each bread slice.
- Roll each slice from the cheese side up to form a log, sealing the edge with a dab of melted butter if needed.
- Combine melted butter, minced garlic, garlic powder, parsley, and salt in a small bowl.
- Place rollups seam-side down on the baking sheet and brush generously with garlic butter.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes until golden and crispy.
- Let cool briefly before serving—serve warm, optionally with marinara or your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
- Use soft, pliable bread to make rolling easier and avoid tearing.
- Seal edges well with butter to prevent rollups from unwrapping.
- For extra crispiness, bake on a wire rack or air fryer for 8–10 minutes at 360°F (180°C), turning halfway.
- These rollups can be assembled ahead of time and refrigerated (unbaked) for up to 24 hours before baking.
