HOW TO MAKE THE BEST GARLIC BREAD

Now, I normally make our Garlic Bread in single serve quantities using regular sourdough slices, only because its what we usually have on hand.

Spread the garlic butter mixture over both halves of bread, covering the entire surface right to the edges. Top with two types of cheeses, sprinkle with dried parsley and bake.

HOW TO MAKE GARLIC BUTTER

MIX softened butter with garlic, parsley and salt. You can also use our garlic butter recipe here.

DO I NEED TO WRAP CHEESY GARLIC BREAD IN FOIL?

For crispy bread on the outside and soft, tender bread on the inside, do not wrap in foil. However, if you like soft bread all over, you can wrap your Cheesy Garlic Bread in foil.

So much buttery goodness! ↘︎

    I made this with Ciabatta – as that was all I had, and it so so good. Everyone loved it and my husband is looking forward to get again. Thank you!

    I’ve tried many garlic bread recipes in the past with most of them being failures, but this one knocked it out of the park!! It reminded me a lot Texas Toast garlic bread which is exactly what I wanted. Everyone at dinner loved it!

  3. June says:

    Imo, these are a little too good. I accidentally mixed a bit of shredded mozzerella into the paste which I spread on both sides of the bread, which crisped the bottom. 🙂

  4. james says:

    yeah this bread wasn’t to bad, probably could do with a tad more garlic but that comes down to personal preference, ( or it was the garlic paste i used not sure).

    So when I saw this I just had to try it, looked too good. Made some French bread first attempt at that as well and went ahead with this. It was amazing and on point, barely five minutes and my tray of two portions were all eaten up and everyone was full of smiles. Thank you ☺️ everyone give it a try

    Made this last night to go with the Balsamic Baked Chicken Breasts. Yet another big hit! My wife is starting to think that I know what I’m doing in the kitchen, thanks to Karina.
