THE BEST GARLIC BREAD YOU'LL EVER HAVE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. Slice bread in half lengthwise and place on a large baking sheet, cut sides up.
• In a medium bowl, mix butter, garlic, parsley and salt together until well combined. Spread evenly over bread.
• Bake for 10-15 minutes or until slightly golden brown on the edges. If you want to add cheese, add it the last 2 minutes of baking. If you like a crispier garlic bread, bake for 3-5 minutes more, watching carefully until it is as golden as you like.

THE BEST GARLIC BREAD

Steps:

• Arrange a rack in the center of oven and preheat to 450 degrees F.
• Melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until the butter is golden and the garlic is very fragrant, about 3 minutes.
• Slice the bread in half lengthwise. Liberally brush the crust with the garlic butter. Turn the bread cut-side up. Slice each loaf crosswise at 2-inch intervals without cutting all the way through, making "pull-apart" garlic bread. Liberally brush the cut sides of the bread with more garlic butter, spreading any remaining garlic evenly over top. You should use all the garlic butter. Carefully transfer the bread to a rimmed baking sheet.
• Sprinkle the loaves with the Parmesan and a pinch of salt and bake until the edges of the bread are a deep golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Top with the parsley. Serve warm.

NO-FUSS FANCY GARLIC BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Add the parsley, basil, salt and garlic to a small food processor fitted with the blade attachment. Pulse the mixture until it's finely chopped. Add the butter and cheese and pulse to fully incorporate.
• Cut the baguette in half through the middle and open the 2 pieces like a book, cut-side up. Spread the butter mixture evenly on each of the cut sides. Sandwich the 2 sides together and cut the baguette in half. Wrap each half in foil and place them on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes.
• Remove the baking sheet from the oven and turn the broiler to high. Carefully unwrap the foil packs and open the bread, exposing the buttered sides. Return the baking sheet to the oven and broil until the edges are toasted, about 1 minute. Cut each baguette quarter into 3 pieces and serve.

HOMEMADE CIABATTA GARLIC BREAD RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Add the garlic, rosemary, oregano, and parsley to a small food processor and blend. Drizzle in the olive oil from the top opening of the food processor while everything is blending. Season with kosher salt and black pepper.
• Place the bread flat on a cutting board. Place your non-dominant hand on top of the bread. Take a knife and slice the bread in half horizontally.
• Spoon the herb and garlic oil equally onto both halves of the bread and spread it all over. Put the bread halves back together.
• Line a large sheet pan with foil. Place the bread flat on the pan and cover with another piece of foil. Crimp the foil sides to close tightly.
• Bake the foil-wrapped bread on the center rack of the heated oven for 10 minutes.
• Remove the bread from the oven and uncover it. Separate the two halves of bread and place them side by side on the sheet pan.
• Sprinkle grated parmesan onto the bread.
• Return the sheet pan with the bread to the oven for another 10 minutes, until the bread crisps with golden edges and some of the cheese is slightly golden.
• Cut into 1-inch slices and serve immediately.

LISA'S BEST EVER GARLIC BREAD

Steps:

• Melt butter in a small saucepan; simmer garlic slices in hot butter over low heat until butter turns foamy, about 5 minutes.
• Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
• Place bread loaf halves under the preheated broiler to toast, 2 to 4 minutes. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
• Slice toasted bread into 2-inch thick slices. Dip toasted side of each slice into garlic butter.

FABULOUS GARLIC BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 180 degrees celcius (not sure how hot this is in Fahrenheit).
• Slice each bun into 3/4 inch slices (if you slice on an angle it will make the actual pieces bigger)and place on a baking tray covered in baking paper.
• Crush the garlic, add to the combined margarine, oil, parmesan and parsley. Mix well.
• Spread thickly onto the slices of bread and bake in the oven checking every 2 minutes or so. Timing will depend on how crisp you like your bread. Not usually longer than 5 minutes.
• Serve hot with anything!
• Tip: Don't be scared to put on too much of the garlic mix -- remember that it has parmesan and parsley in it which bulks it up!

FABULOUS FRENCH BREAD

Steps:

• Into a large warm mixing bowl, pour warm water, then stir in sugar, salt, oil, and half of the flour and yeast.
• Beat vigorously for 2 or 3 minutes.
• Stir in remaining flour until all dry ingredients are completely mixed inches.
• Let your dough mixer or machine kneed the dough for a further 8 minutes to really get the gluten working in the flour to create a softer bread.
• Once the mixing is done, transfer dough to a greased bowl and cover with a dough towel or plastic wrap.
• Let the dough rest for 20 minutes. (Time this.)
• At the end of the 20 minutes, punch the dough down; two punches should do it.
• Then set the time again for 10 minutes; at the end of the 10 minutes, punch the dough down again.
• Repeat the ten minute intervals five times.
• After the 5th time of punching down the dough, turn the dough onto a floured board; knead only enough to coat dough with enough flour so that it can be handled.
• Divide the dough into 2 parts.
• Roll each part of dough into a rectangle about 4 x 12 inches and roll up like a jelly roll, rolling from the long side.
• Pinch end to seal.
• Arrange on a cookie sheet sprayed with Pam spray and sprinkled with cornmeal.
• Allow the two loaves to rise for a further 30 minutes.
• With a very sharp knife, cut 4 gashes at an angle on top, then brush with beaten whole egg.
• If desired, sprinkle with sesame or poppy seeds.
• Bake immediately at 400 degrees for 25 minutes or until light to medium brown.
• Remove from baking sheets immediately and cool.
