Method

Preparation of Garlic Butter

  1. 1

    Make the Garlic Butter

    In a medium bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter, minced garlic cloves, chopped fresh parsley, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.

Preparing the Bread

  1. 2

    Slice the Baguette

    Take the French baguette and slice it in half lengthwise to create two long halves. You can also slice it into smaller pieces if preferred.

Applying Garlic Butter

  1. 3

    Spread the Garlic Butter

    Generously spread the prepared garlic butter mixture on the cut sides of the sliced baguette, ensuring even coverage.

Toasting the Bread

  1. 4

    Toast the Garlic Bread

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the buttered bread halves on a baking sheet, cut side up, and toast in the oven for about 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden and crispy.

Serving

  1. 5

    Serve

    Remove the garlic bread from the oven, let it cool for a minute, then slice into portions if not already done. Serve warm as a side dish or appetizer.
