Ingredients

• 4 slices of thick-cut bread (sourdough or country bread works great)

• 1 tablespoon fresh herbs (like parsley, chives, or basil), chopped
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Optional: red pepper flakes for a spicy kick

How to Make Cheesy Toast Stacks

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Spread softened butter evenly on one side of each slice of bread.
3. Place the bread slices butter-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
4. Generously sprinkle shredded cheese on top of each slice of bread.
5. Bake in the preheated oven for about 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
6. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if desired.
7. Stack the slices on top of each other, creating a cheesy tower. Sprinkle fresh herbs on top for garnish.
8. Slice into manageable portions and serve immediately.

Tips for the Best Results

• Use a mix of cheeses for added flavor and texture.
• Ensure your bread is thick enough to hold the cheese without becoming soggy.
• Keep an eye on the cheese to prevent burning; every oven is different.
• For a crispy finish, broil the stacks for the last minute of cooking.

Easy Variations

• Add sliced tomatoes or avocado between the layers for extra freshness.
• Swap the herbs for a sprinkle of garlic powder or Italian seasoning for a different flavor profile.
• Try adding cooked bacon or ham for a heartier breakfast option.

What to Serve With It

• A side of fresh fruit for a refreshing contrast.
• Scrambled eggs or a fried egg on top for extra protein.
• A simple green salad dressed with lemon vinaigrette.
• A warm bowl of tomato soup for dipping.

Cheesy Toast Stacks are best enjoyed fresh, but you can store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5-7 minutes until warmed through and the cheese is melty again.
