Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece French bread loaf (or baguette)
- 1 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 4 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cut the French bread loaf in half horizontally to create two large pieces.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until evenly combined.
Spread the garlic butter mixture generously and evenly across the cut sides of both bread halves.
If using Parmesan cheese, sprinkle it evenly over the garlic butter layer.
Place the bread halves on a baking sheet, cut side up.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges of the bread are golden brown and crispy.
For an extra-crispy finish, switch the oven to broil mode for the last 1-2 minutes of baking, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
Remove the garlic bread from the oven and let it cool for 2 minutes. Slice into individual portions and serve warm.
