If you are looking to impress your family and friends with a loaf of delicious garlic bread at home, you have to try this simple recipe. Prior to cooking this dish, my idea of homemade garlic bread had always included garlic powder instead of cloves. However, utilizing fresh garlic and parsley as well as letting the bread sit in the oven on broil made a huge difference in the overall taste and crispiness of the final product. As it was incredibly fast and easy to add these topping to a pre-made baguette from the store, I will definitely continue making this recipe in the future!
