Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (or adjust based on your schedule: 425°F for 9-11 minutes, 450°F for 8-10 minutes).
- Place the garlic bread on a lightly oiled baking sheet.
- Bake until golden brown and crispy on the outside, about 12-15 minutes at 400°F. If you already have dinner in the oven, you can bake the garlic bread alongside it – just adjust the time as needed.
- Remove from the oven, cut into slices and serve immediately.
Recipe Tips
For extra crispiness, broil the garlic bread for the last 1-2 minutes, watching closely to avoid burning.
If you have leftover garlic bread, store it in an airtight container and reheat in the oven or toaster oven.
