Ingredients
- 1 loaf Baguette or Italian bread
- 113 grams Unsalted butter, softened
- 4 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 lemon Lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Slice the loaf of bread lengthwise into two halves and place them cut side up on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Step 3
In a medium bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, lemon zest, chopped parsley, salt, and olive oil. Mix until well combined.
Step 4
Spread a generous layer of the butter mixture evenly over the cut sides of both bread halves.
Step 5
Place the baking sheet into the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges of the bread are golden brown.
Step 6
For extra crispiness, turn on the broiler and broil the bread for an additional 1-2 minutes. Keep a close eye to prevent burning.
Step 7
Remove the bread from the oven. Let it cool slightly for 1-2 minutes, then slice into individual pieces.
Step 8
Serve warm and enjoy your Lemon Garlic Bread as a side dish or appetizer!
