Ingredients

  • 1 loaf of crusty bread (baguette or Italian loaf), sliced in half lengthwise
  • ½ cup Challenge Spreadable Butter with Olive Oil; add more depending on the size of your bread
  • 8-10 garlic cloves, minced
  • ¼ cup fresh basil, finely chopped
  • ¼ cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground

Directions

  • 1

    Preheat your oven to 375°F.

  • 2

    In a medium bowl, combine the Challenge Spreadable Butter with Olive Oil, minced garlic, chopped basil, parsley, salt, and pepper. Stir until everything is well mixed.

  • 3

    Spread the garlic and herb butter generously over both halves of the bread.

  • 4

    Place the bread halves, buttered side up, on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  • 5

    Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the bread is golden around the edges and the butter has melted into every nook.

  • 6

    For an extra-crispy finish, switch the oven to broil for 1-2 minutes—just keep an eye on it to avoid burning the garlic.

  • 7

    Remove from the oven, let it cool slightly, then slice into pieces and serve warm.

Note: Love cheesy garlic bread? Add a sprinkle of shredded mozzarella or Parmesan before baking for a melty, cheesy twist!
