Ingredients
- 1 loaf Baguette or Italian bread
- 120 grams Unsalted butter
- 6 cloves Fresh garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 50 grams Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Slice the baguette diagonally into 1-inch thick slices, leaving the slices attached at the base to keep the loaf intact.
Step 3
In a small bowl, mix the softened butter, finely minced garlic, chopped parsley, grated Parmesan, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well combined.
Step 4
Spread a generous amount of the garlic butter mixture between each slice of the bread and across the top.
Step 5
Wrap the loaf loosely in aluminum foil, ensuring it is sealed without being too tight, to allow steam to circulate during baking.
Step 6
Place the wrapped bread on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes.
Step 7
Unwrap the bread and bake for an additional 5 minutes to crisp up the edges and create a golden crust.
Step 8
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
Step 9
Optional: Sprinkle extra fresh parsley or Parmesan on top for garnish just before serving.
