Garlic Bread

Garlic Bread

Garlic bread made with olive oil instead of butter browns more evenly and carries deeper flavor. Embrace's herbal, cut-grass edge keeps this version from tasting one-note. Broil until the crust crackles, about ten minutes.

Ingredients

  • 1 loaf Italian bread
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/3 cup Embrace
  • 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Grated Parmesan, optional

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  2. Slice the loaf in half lengthwise, then place both halves cut-side up on a baking sheet.
  3. In a small bowl, stir together the minced garlic, Embrace, chopped parsley, and salt.
  4. Spread the garlic oil mixture evenly over both cut sides of the bread, working it into the crumb with the back of a spoon.
  5. If using Parmesan, scatter it over the top now.
  6. Bake 10 to 12 minutes, until the edges are deeply golden and the top is crisp, check at the 8-minute mark since ovens vary.
  7. Let the bread cool for 2 minutes, then slice into pieces and serve warm.
