Buttery, garlicky, delicious garlic toast with crisp edges, soft & chewy centers. My favorite garlic toast recipe is an easy side dish to serve with pasta, soups and so much more!
Ingredients
Scale
Tools Needed
- Garlic peeler
- Silicone basting brush
- Bread knife
- Baking sheet
Ingredients
- ½ French baguette or Italian bread (1 foot needed)
- 2–3 cloves of garlic, minced
- 2–3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil – I used 2 tablespoons
- ¼ teaspoon salt, or salt to taste
Optional Topping
- a light sprinkling of garlic salt or coarse sea salt on each round
- chopped parsley
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a medium or large baking sheet with lightly greased foil.
- Slice baguette into 10-14 rounds. Lay baguette rounds onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Peel garlic, then mince. Add minced garlic, olive oil, and salt to taste into a small mixing bowl. Whisk until well mixed.
- Using a silicone basting brush, brush the garlic oil mixture onto each baguette round, ensuring minced garlic gets on every piece. Then, use a spoon or fork to scoop up any last bits of garlic.
- Bake for 5-8 minutes (I did 8 for golden brown edges), until golden at the edges and fragrant.
- Sprinkle with garlic salt and chopped parsley. Enjoy!
- For an extra garlicky delight, serve with this super tasty garlic confit.
