1 loaf crusty bread (French baguette, ciabatta, or sourdough)
Olive oil (for brushing)
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Bread
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the bread into thick slices or wedges. Brush lightly with olive oil on both sides.
Arrange the bread slices on a baking sheet and bake for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway, until warm and lightly toasted.
Step 2: Make the Olive Oil Dip
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic, oregano, basil, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper.
Stir in the balsamic vinegar and Parmesan cheese (if using).
Let the dip sit for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Step 3: Serve
Transfer the warm bread to a serving platter.
Pour the olive oil dip into a shallow bowl or dish and garnish with chopped parsley or basil.
Serve immediately, encouraging guests to dip the bread into the flavorful oil mixture.
