Instructions
Preparing the garlic butter spread:
-
Soften your butter (or alternative) at room temperature.
-
Mince 2-3 cloves of garlic per 1/2 cup of butter.
-
Mix in your chosen herbs and seasonings.
-
Blend everything together until smooth and fragrant.
Applying the spread:
-
Lay out your sliced bread on a baking sheet.
-
Generously slather each slice with your garlic butter mixture.
-
Make sure to spread it all the way to the edges – we want flavor in every bite!
Baking vs. broiling:
-
For a crispy exterior and soft interior, bake at 375°F (190°C) for 10-15 minutes.
-
Want it extra crispy? Broil for 2-3 minutes, but watch it like a hawk – it can burn quickly!
Achieving the perfect crispiness:
-
For extra crunch, try toasting the bread lightly before adding the garlic butter.
-
Don’t overcrowd the baking sheet – give each slice some space to crisp up.
