Garlic Bread Recipe

Preparation Instructions

1. 1

   Roasting the Garlic

   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the tops off the garlic bulbs to expose the cloves. Drizzle olive oil over the exposed cloves and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

2. 2

   Wrap and Bake

   Wrap each bulb in aluminum foil and place them on a baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes, until the cloves are soft and golden.

   Prepare the Bread

   While the garlic is roasting, slice the bread loaf in half lengthwise. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

4. 4

   Finishing Touches

   Once the garlic is roasted, let it cool slightly. Squeeze the soft cloves out of their skins and mash them into a paste. Spread the garlic paste evenly onto the cut sides of the bread.

5. 5

   Final Bake

   Place the garlic spread bread back in the oven for an additional 10-15 minutes until it is golden and crispy. Sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.
