Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 loaves Baguette or crusty French bread
- 1 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 4 cloves Fresh garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Instructions
Slice the baguettes into 1-inch thick slices, cutting at a slight diagonal. You should have 16-20 slices per loaf.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine softened butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, grated Parmesan, salt, and pepper. Mix until evenly blended.
Spread approximately 1 tablespoon of the garlic butter mixture evenly onto one side of each bread slice.
Arrange the buttered slices in a single layer on a baking sheet. If freezing, place the baking sheet in the freezer until the slices are firm, about 1-2 hours.
Once frozen, transfer the slices to a freezer-safe zip-top bag or airtight container. Label with the date and store in the freezer for up to 3 months.
When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Arrange the desired number of slices, buttered side up, on a baking sheet.
Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the bread is golden and crisp around the edges. If desired, broil for 1-2 minutes at the end for extra crispiness.
Serve warm with your favorite pasta, soup, or as a standalone snack.
