Buttery Garlic Bread

The classic garlic bread turned up a notch. This is definitely not your average garlic bread, its extra buttery, with lots of fresh parsley, and lots of garlic. A perfect amalgamation of flavors that turns a simple French bread into something drool worthy.

About the recipe

This is one of my eldest daughter and her finace’s favorite recipe that they’ve been raving about for months. I’ve heard such accolades about this garlic bread that one weekend when we were over at their place for their signature leek and cherry tomato pasta dinner, I asked them to make the garlic bread that I’d heard so much about. They happily obliged and I must say, it was as good as all the rave reviews.

This garlic bread oozes butter! The butter makes the bread crispy on the edges, soft in the center and over the top delicious. What also adds amazing flavor is plenty of fresh parsley and green onions. Yup these fresh herbs really taste phenomenal in this garlic bread. Along with loads of fresh garlic, its a fabulous combination of flavors that all come together on top of a good loaf of bread. Give it a try!
