Garlic Bread Recipe Ingredient
For Preparation
Now, let's proceed step by step
-
Preheat Your Oven
Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). This ensures that it reaches the perfect temperature for baking your garlic bread to golden perfection.
-
Prepare the Garlic Butter
In a small bowl, mix the softened butter with minced garlic, chopped parsley, and a pinch of salt and pepper. If you're using Parmesan cheese, stir it into the mix now. This blend will infuse the bread with flavor and moisture.
-
Prep the Bread
Cut the baguette or Italian bread in half lengthwise. Then, generously spread the garlic butter mixture over the cut sides of the bread. Make sure to cover every inch for an even flavor.
-
Bake to Perfection
Place the bread halves, buttered side up, on a baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges start to turn golden brown. For a crispier top, broil for an additional 1-2 minutes, but watch closely to prevent burning.
-
Serve and Enjoy
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool slightly. Cut into individual portions and serve warm. The crispy exterior, combined with the soft, buttery center and the sweet, mellow garlic flavor, makes for an irresistible breakfast option or side dish that everyone will love.
