Bread Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This ensures that the garlic bread bakes evenly and gets crispy.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Garlic Butter

    In a medium bowl, soften the unsalted butter at room temperature. Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the butter. Chop the fresh parsley finely and add it to the mixture. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Mix everything together until well combined.

  3. 3

    Slice the Baguette

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

  4. 4

    Spread Garlic Butter

    Spread the garlic butter mixture generously over the cut sides of the baguette. Ensure that the butter is evenly distributed to cover all surfaces.

  5. 5

    Bake the Bread

    Place the baguette halves on a baking sheet, cut side up. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden and crispy.

  6. 6

    Optional Broil

    For an extra crispy top, turn on the broiler for the last 1-2 minutes of baking. Watch closely to prevent burning.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Remove from the oven and let cool for a minute. Cut into pieces if not already sliced and serve warm.
