Crusty Italian Garlic Bread

 Crusty Italian Garlic Bread Recipe


Crusty Italian Garlic Bread Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 large Italian or French baguette
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
  • 1 tsp dried Italian seasoning (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Prepare the Garlic Butter:
    In a bowl, mix softened butter, minced garlic, parsley, salt, and optional Parmesan or Italian seasoning until well combined.

  3. Slice the Bread:
    Slice the baguette into 1-inch thick pieces, but do not cut all the way through. The slices should still be connected at the base.

  4. Spread the Garlic Butter:
    Generously spread the garlic butter mixture between each slice and over the top of the bread.

  5. Wrap and Bake:
    Wrap the bread in aluminum foil, leaving the top slightly open to allow for crisping. Place it on the prepared baking sheet.

  6. Bake the Bread:
    Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the butter is melted and the bread is golden and crispy.

  7. Optional Broil for Crispiness:
    For an extra crispy texture, unwrap the foil and broil the bread for 2-3 minutes, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.

  8. Serve:
    Serve warm as a side dish or appetizer. Enjoy your crusty Italian garlic bread with soups, pasta, or salads!


Tips:

  • For a spicier version, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the garlic butter.
  • Store leftovers wrapped in foil and reheat in the oven.

Buon appetito! 🥖🧄
