Garlic Butter Ingredients

Method

Preparation and Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Make the Garlic Butter

    In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Baguette

    Slice the Leidenheimer baguette in half lengthwise. If desired, you can also slice it into smaller pieces for individual servings.

  3. 3

    Toast the Baguette

    Preheat a griddle or skillet over medium heat. Spread a generous amount of garlic butter on the cut side of the baguette. Place the baguette, butter side down, on the griddle. Grill for about 3-4 minutes until golden brown and crispy. If desired, you can flip and grill the other side for an additional 1-2 minutes.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Remove the garlic toasted baguette from the griddle, cut into serving pieces, and serve warm.
