1
Soften the Butter
In a medium bowl, let the unsalted butter sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes or until it is soft enough to mix easily.
2
Mince the Garlic
While the butter is softening, peel and finely mince the 4 cloves of garlic.
3
Chop the Parsley
Rinse the fresh parsley under running water, pat it dry with a paper towel, and then chop it finely.
4
Combine Ingredients
Once the butter is softened, add the minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Mix everything together until well combined.

5
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
6
Slice the Bread
Take the loaf of French bread and slice it in half lengthwise. Place the halves cut-side up on a baking sheet.
7
Spread the Garlic Butter
Using a spatula or a butter knife, spread the garlic butter mixture evenly over both halves of the bread.

8
Bake
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the bread is crispy.
9
Cool and Serve
Remove the garlic bread from the oven, let it cool for a couple of minutes, then slice into portions and serve warm.
