Method
Preparation of Garlic Butter
Soften the Butter
Take the unsalted butter out of the refrigerator and let it soften at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
Mince Garlic
Peel the garlic cloves and finely mince them using a knife or a garlic press.
Chop Parsley
Wash and finely chop the fresh parsley leaves.
Mix Ingredients
In a medium bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, and salt. Use a spatula to mix everything until well combined.
Prepare the Bread
Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the Baguette
Using a serrated knife, slice the French baguette in half lengthwise to create two long pieces.
Assemble and Bake
Bake the Bread
Place the prepared baguette halves on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the butter is melted.
Cool and Serve
Once baked, remove the garlic bread from the oven and let it cool for a minute before slicing into individual pieces. Serve warm.
