Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 loaf French baguette
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 medium Yellow onion, finely diced
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the French baguette in half lengthwise and place it cut side up on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the diced onion to the skillet and cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are caramelized (about 8-10 minutes). Remove from heat and set aside.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Once melted, stir in the minced garlic, caramelized onions, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the flavors to blend.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the chopped fresh parsley.
Using a brush or spoon, generously spread the onion-garlic-butter mixture evenly over the cut sides of the baguette.
If desired, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the top for an extra layer of flavor.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges of the bread are golden and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 1-2 minutes. Slice into individual pieces and serve warm.
