Equipment

Method
 

Directions
  1. Start by cutting your baguette into 1-2 inch segments. Carefully hollow out the insides, leaving just enough bread to maintain structure.
  2. In a bowl, combine melted butter with minced garlic and chopped parsley. Gently fold in the fresh mozzarella until evenly incorporated.
  3. Take the mozzarella mixture and generously fill each hollow section of the baguette. Press gently to ensure they hold together.
  4. For added stability, pop the stuffed bread bites into the refrigerator for about 10 minutes.
  5. Preheat your oven or air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Bake the stuffed bread bites for about 15 minutes or until golden brown.
  6. Enjoy these delectable bites warm right out of the oven!
