Ingredients

• 1 large artisan loaf or sourdough loaf
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
• 1/4 cup Roasted Onion & Garlic Infused Olive Oil Blend
• 4 cloves garlic minced
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley finely chopped
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Equipment

• 1 baking sheet For oven baking
• 1 sheet Parchment paper Optional but helpful
• 1 Small mixing bowl For the butter mixture
• 1 Butter knife or spoon For spreading
• 1 sheet Aluminum foil For the first bake

Method

 

Instructions

1. 1. Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. 2. Slice the loaf crosswise in 1-inch intervals without cutting all the way through the bottom crust.
3. 3. In a small bowl, stir together the softened butter, Roasted Onion & Garlic Infused Olive Oil Blend, minced garlic, parsley, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until smooth.
4. 4. Gently spread the butter mixture between the bread slices and over the top of the loaf, working it into the cuts as evenly as possible.
5. 5. Sprinkle the Parmesan over the top and tuck a little into the slices if you like a cheesier finish.
6. 6. Wrap the loaf loosely in foil and bake for 12 minutes.
7. 7. Open the foil and bake for 5 to 6 minutes more, until the top turns golden and the edges crisp.
8. 8. Let the bread rest for 2 minutes before serving warm.

Notes

For the best texture, use a loaf with a sturdy crust so the center stays soft while the edges bake up crisp. If your loaf is especially large, add another tablespoon of the infused olive oil blend to the butter mixture for a richer finish. The bread is best served warm the day it is baked.

Recipe Tips

Slice the loaf almost all the way through so the butter mixture slips into each cut and seasons the bread evenly. If you want a deeper crunch, broil the loaf for the last minute or two and watch it closely.

Serving Suggestions

Serve this garlic bread alongside spaghetti, lasagna, roasted chicken, or a simple bowl of tomato soup. It also works well as a starter for dinner parties or as a hearty side for casual family meals.

Storage

Store leftovers wrapped in foil or in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a 325°F oven until warmed through and the edges feel crisp again.

Variations

Swap Parmesan for shredded mozzarella for a softer, stretchier finish, or add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little extra kick. You can also use sliced ciabatta or a French loaf instead of an artisan loaf.
