Ingredients for Pan Con Ajo

Method

Instructions for Making Pan Con Ajo

  1. 1

    Prepare the Garlic Butter

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Peel the garlic cloves and place them in a small baking dish. Add olive oil and cover the dish with foil. Roast in the oven for about 20 minutes, until the garlic is soft and fragrant.

  2. 2

    Mix the Butter

    In a medium bowl, combine the roasted garlic (squeezed out of their skins), unsalted butter, chopped fresh parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined and smooth.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Baguette

    Slice the baguette into 1-inch thick slices and place them on a baking sheet.

  4. 4

    Spread the Garlic Butter

    Generously spread the garlic butter mixture on each slice of baguette.

  5. 5

    Toast the Bread

    Place the baking sheet in the oven and toast for about 10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and crispy.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm as a delicious appetizer or side dish.
