Preparation

Chef’s notes

For the exact amount of bread, see photos above! For a small Italian loaf, I use all of the butter! The photo with the French bread next to the baguette – that shows how much French bread I use for this amount of butter. It will all depend on the size of your loaf.
If you use unsalted butter, be sure to add a pinch of salt to the butter mixture!
This is AMAZING to freeze! Spread the bread with the butter as usual, then pop it in the freezer. Once solid, throw it in a bag or wrap in foil. You have garlic bread at the ready to bake the next time the craving strikes! What a treat!
