Ingredients
- 1 loaf French baguette
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
- 4 pieces Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Slice the French baguette lengthwise into two halves and place them cut side up on a baking sheet.
Step 3
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Add the olive oil for extra richness.
Step 4
Finely mince the garlic cloves and add them to the melted butter. Cook gently for about 1 minute, just until fragrant (do not let the garlic brown).
Step 5
Finely chop the fresh parsley and stir it into the butter-garlic mixture along with the salt.
Step 6
Using a pastry brush or spoon, generously spread the garlic butter evenly over the cut sides of the bread.
Step 7
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the buttered bread.
Step 8
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the bread is golden and crispy around the edges.
Step 9
Switch your oven to broil for an additional 2-3 minutes to give the cheese a golden, bubbly finish. Watch closely to avoid burning.
Step 10
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool for 2-3 minutes to ensure it’s safe to handle.
Step 11
Slice into individual pieces and serve warm. Enjoy your 'Don't Burn Your Fingers Garlic Bread'!
