Recipe walkthrough: Instructions

- Step 1: Using a bread knife (a serrated knife) slice the French loaf width ways, about 1" between slices. Not all the way through the loaf though.
- Step 2: Add the remaining ingredients to a small bowl and mix with a spoon until it's totally combined.
- Step 3: Spoon the garlic butter filling between each slice, evenly.
- Step 4: Wrap the whole loaf up in aluminum foil and place in the oven on a baking tray.
- Step 5: After 25 minutes open up the foil and bake a further 5 minutes until crispy on the outside.
Hint: Make more of a cheesy bread by adding some mozzarella cheese or cheddar (or your favorite cheese).
Recipe variations and substitute ideas

- Mozzarella Slices - stuff slices of mozzarella cheese between pieces.
- Chicken Breast - shred a chicken breast and add stuff bread.
- Meat Sauce - Try making a meat sauce and cheese stuffed bread.
- Jalapeno Pieces - add a few between slices.
- Chili Flakes - add a teaspoon chilli flakes to the herb butter.
- Cream Cheese - for a little creaminess.
- Red Pepper - for a little heat.
- Ciabatta Bread - Ciabatta bread can be a little more crusty.

How to store leftovers
After it has cooled completely you can store in the refrigerator in an airtight container with a little paper towel - or wrap back up in aluminum foil. It'll be good for about 4 days, just warm up in the microwave for a few seconds.
Mel's kitchen notes
If you like to regularly have garlic bread for your meals make a large batch of the butter mixture using your stand mixer and store in the refrigerator. That way all you need do is reach for that butter and spread onto your bread loaf.
Frequently asked questions: FAQs
The easiest way is to remove the foil a little sooner, give it a little longer in the oven open to the heat and separate the slices a little if possible.
Not really. There is not much nutrients, but like anything - this garlic baguette in moderation is ok.
