This garlic bread earns its name “best garlic bread” because it is fast and easy, healthy, versatile and of course delicious. Warmed bread is served in a pool of good olive oil and seasonings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 French baguette
  • 6 ounces really good quality cold press extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • 4 t garlic powder
  • Kosher or Maldon salt
  • Fresh parsley, chopped
  • Crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Using a serrated knife, divide the baguette into four lengths. Slice each length partially through to create four to six 3/4″ slices. See photo slider for example. Place on a baking sheet and pop into the oven for about 3 minutes, until bread is warm and just a little crunchy on the outside.
  2. Pour 1 1/2 tablespoons of olive oil into each of four individual serving bowls. Stir 1/2 – 1 t of garlic powder into each bowl, depending on the level of garlic flavor you prefer. Stir gently to combine.
  3. Swirl each bowl gently to create a 1/2″ rim of olive oil around the pool of olive oil. This gives you a surface area in the bowl for the salt to adhere to. Grab a pinch of salt and sprinkle it over the olive oil rim. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes or other seasonings to each bowl if desired.
  4. When the bread is done remove it from the oven and place a length of bread in each serving bowl. Sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately.
