Delicious and Easy Herbed Garlic Bread

This herbed garlic bread is buttery, flavorful, and perfect as a side for pasta, soups, or any meal. It’s easy to make with simple ingredients, and you'll have a delicious loaf ready in no time!

Ingredients:

  • 1 loaf of French bread (or Italian bread)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried parsley)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh basil, finely chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried basil)
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Optional: 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes for a bit of heat
  • Optional: 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven:

    • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. Prepare the Garlic Herb Butter:

    • In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, parsley, basil, oregano, salt, and black pepper. If using crushed red pepper flakes, add that in as well. Mix everything until well combined.

  3. Prepare the Bread:

    • Slice the French or Italian bread in half lengthwise. You can also slice it into smaller pieces if you prefer individual servings. Place the bread halves (cut side up) on a baking sheet.

  4. Spread the Garlic Herb Butter:

    • Generously spread the garlic herb butter mixture on both halves of the bread, ensuring the cut side is fully covered.

  5. Optional Cheese Topping:

    • If you like cheesy garlic bread, sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the buttered bread for an extra layer of flavor.

  6. Bake the Garlic Bread:

    • Place the bread in the preheated oven and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy around the edges. If you want a crispier texture, you can broil the bread for an additional 1-2 minutes, keeping an eye on it to avoid burning.

  7. Serve:

    • Remove the garlic bread from the oven and let it cool for a minute or two. Slice it into pieces and serve warm.

Tips:

  • Make Ahead: You can prepare the garlic butter ahead of time and refrigerate it for up to 2 days. Just spread it on the bread and bake when you're ready.
  • Customizations: Add extra herbs like rosemary or thyme for a different flavor. You can also top with mozzarella cheese for a cheesy garlic bread.
  • Storage: Leftover garlic bread can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days, but it’s best enjoyed fresh.

This herbed garlic bread is guaranteed to be a crowd-pleaser. The combination of buttery garlic and herbs makes for a flavorful and irresistible side dish!
