I could eat an entire loaf of garlic bread in one sitting, that is how much I love the combination of fresh bread and garlic! Earlier on in life I would always purchase my garlic bread and all I needed to do would be to bake it and enjoy but I have recently started making my own. Now I cannot remember why I ever spent all that money when homemade is super simple and much more delicious!
I have previously shared a loaf of bread that is cut into little slices with garlic butter in between but this recipe serves up the entire loaf as a whole and is just glorious!
Let’s get cooking…
Start by placing your softened butter in a bowl, add in the salt, pepper and parsley then grate over the garlic. Mix together until the butter and spices are very well mixed together.
Slice the bread loaf in half and spread each half liberally with the butter. Bake at 180 for 10 minutes until golden and crisp.
Serve with pasta or alongside a roast or braai!
