Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a medium bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, freshly chopped parsley, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.
- Slice the baguette or Italian bread in half lengthwise, then spread a generous layer of the herb-infused butter mixture evenly across each half.
- If desired, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the buttered surface for an extra layer of flavor.
- Place the bread on a baking sheet, cut side up, and bake in the preheated oven for about 10-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and crispy.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing into individual pieces. Serve warm.
Chef’s Tips
- For a spicier twist, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the butter mixture.
- Experiment with different herbs to personalize the flavor, such as thyme or rosemary.
- Store any leftover garlic butter in the refrigerator and use it on vegetables or other breads.
