Garlic Bread Recipe

Soften the Butter

Take 1 cup of unsalted butter out of the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or until it is soft enough to easily mix.

Prepare the Garlic

Peel and finely mince 4 cloves of garlic. You can use a garlic press or a knife for this step.

Chop the Parsley

Wash and finely chop 2 tablespoons of fresh parsley.

Mix the Ingredients

In a mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, 1 teaspoon of salt, and black pepper to taste. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.

Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Slice the Baguette

Take the baguette and slice it in half lengthwise. You can also slice it into smaller pieces if you prefer individual servings.

Spread the Garlic Butter

Generously spread the garlic butter mixture over the cut sides of the baguette, ensuring even coverage.

Bake the Bread

Place the prepared baguette halves on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and crispy.

Cool and Serve

Once baked, remove the garlic bread from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes. Serve warm, garnished with extra parsley if desired.
