Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 loaf French baguette or Italian bread
- 100 grams Unsalted butter
- 4 pieces Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the loaf of bread into 1-inch thick slices, but do not cut all the way through the base. Keep the bottom of the loaf intact to create a pull-apart effect.
In a medium bowl, combine the softened butter, finely minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, and olive oil. Mix well to create a smooth and aromatic garlic butter.
Carefully spread the garlic butter between each slice of bread, ensuring an even layer. Be gentle to avoid tearing the loaf apart.
If desired, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese between the slices for added flavor.
Wrap the entire loaf in aluminum foil, sealing it tightly to retain moisture.
Place the wrapped loaf on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
After 10 minutes, carefully open the foil to expose the top of the bread. Return it to the oven and bake uncovered for an additional 5 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and slightly crispy.
Serve warm straight out of the oven. Perfect for dipping in soups, mopping up sauces, or enjoying alongside grilled meats.
