1
Prepare the Garlic
Peel and finely chop the garlic cloves. If you prefer a milder garlic flavor, you can roast the garlic first.
2
Mix the Ingredients
In a medium bowl, combine the unsalted butter, chopped garlic, finely chopped parsley, and salt. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.

3
Slice the Baguette
Take the French baguette and slice it in half lengthwise. If you prefer smaller pieces, you can cut it into individual slices instead.
4
Spread the Garlic Butter
Spread an even layer of the prepared garlic butter mixture on each half of the baguette. Ensure you cover the entire surface for maximum flavor.

5
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
6
Toast the Bread
Place the prepared baguette halves on a baking sheet, cut side up, and bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden and crispy.

7
Slice and Serve
Once toasted, remove the garlic bread from the oven. Allow it to cool slightly before slicing into smaller pieces if desired. Serve warm.
