Ingredients

• 1 loaf French bread or baguette
• 8 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 4 cloves Garlic
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Slice the French bread or baguette into 1-inch thick slices. Place the slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.

Step 3

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter in short intervals until fully melted, or melt it in a small saucepan over low heat.

Step 4

Finely mince the garlic cloves using a knife or garlic press and stir them into the melted butter.

Step 5

Add the olive oil, salt, and finely chopped parsley to the garlic-butter mixture. Stir well to combine.

Step 6

Using a pastry brush, generously spread the garlic-butter mixture onto one side of each bread slice.

Step 7

If desired, sprinkle a small amount of grated Parmesan cheese on top of the buttered side of each slice.

Step 8

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges of the bread are golden brown and crisp.

Step 9

Carefully remove the garlic toast from the oven and let it cool for 2 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve warm and enjoy as a side dish or appetizer!
