Cut the flesh of each into 12 pieces, discarding the core and seeds.
Cut the bread into 20 slices. Cut the mozzarella cheeses in 1cm (½ inch) thick slices, making a total of 16 slices.

Place the skewers on an oiled baking tray. Brush the skewers with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Bake in the oven for 8 minutes, turning after 4 minutes and checking to see that the skewers don't burn. Melt the butter and pour over the skewers. Serve garnished with a sprig of parsley.
