Roasted Garlic French Bread
Description
Roasted garlic takes this French bread from familiar to something extra special. Its mellow, slightly sweet flavor blends with melted dairy-free butter and basil, creating a rich, savory mixture spread generously between thick slices of warm French bread.
After a few more minutes in the oven, the garlic butter melts into each slice as the loaf develops a golden, crispy crust. Serve it straight from the oven alongside pasta, soup, or a crisp garden salad—or pull apart a slice while it’s still wonderfully warm and fragrant.
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Wrap and seal the sliced French bread in foil and place it on the center rack in a preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until heated through.
Â
-
Meanwhile, melt the Butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Once melted, stir in the roasted garlic and basil until combined. Remove from the heat and set aside.
Â
-
Remove the bread from the oven and carefully pull back the foil. Using a pastry brush, add about a tablespoon of the butter mixture between each slice.
-
Separate each slice slightly from the next and return the bread to the oven, uncovered, for 5 to 7 more minutes, or until lightly golden.
Serve warm.
