It is difficult to say exactly where the concept of garlic cheese bread originated, as breads with added garlic and cheese are found in many cultures around the world. However, the specific combination of garlic and cheese on bread is likely to have evolved from the popularity of these ingredients in Italian cuisine.

In Italy, it is common to find breads that are topped with garlic, cheese, and other flavorful ingredients such as herbs and spices. This type of bread is often served as an appetizer or side dish and is known as bruschetta in Italian. The exact origins of bruschetta are somewhat disputed, but it is believed to have originated in central Italy, possibly in the region of Lazio or Tuscany, in the 15th or 16th century.
