Garlic Butter Mixture

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. 2

    Prepare the Garlic Butter

    In a mixing bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter, minced garlic cloves, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are combined and form a smooth garlic butter mixture.

  3. 3

    Slice the Bread

    Carefully slice the French bread loaf in half lengthwise. Place the halves on a baking sheet, cut side up.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Spread the Garlic Butter

    Using a butter knife or a spatula, generously spread the garlic butter mixture evenly on each half of the sliced French bread.

Baking

  1. 5

    Bake the Bread

    Place the baking sheet with the prepared garlic bread in the preheated oven. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the butter has melted.

  2. 6

    Serve

    Remove the garlic bread from the oven and let it cool for a minute. Cut into slices if desired and serve warm.
