BEST GARLIC TOAST (QUICK & EASY!)



BEST Garlic Toast (Quick & Easy!) image

Here's the very best garlic toast you'll find! Ultra garlicky, crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside: and it takes only 10 minutes to make.

Provided by Sonja Overhiser

Categories     Side Dish

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 7

12 small round slices of a large baguette or Italian bread (homemade or store bought)*
2 cloves garlic (2 teaspoons finely minced)
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Garlic powder, for sprinkling
Finely chopped Italian parsley, for the garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Thinly slice the bread.
  • Mince the garlic. In a small bowl, mix together the garlic with the olive oil, dried oregano, and salt. Use a brush to brush the mixture on both sides of each slice of bread and place them onto a baking sheet. Try to pick up some of the minced garlic with the brush, as it tends to sink to the bottom. (If the oil runs out, depending on your size of bread, just add a splash more to the bowl with the garlic.)
  • Add a pinch of garlic powder to the top of each toast.
  • Bake for 5 minutes until the crust is crisp but the inside is still soft. If desired, sprinkle with finely chopped Italian parsley. Enjoy immediately.

THE BEST GARLIC BREAD



The Best Garlic Bread image

We went very classic with this garlic bread recipe-lots of butter and lots of garlic loaded onto warm, soft and pillowy French bread. You could make a light meal by rounding it out with a crisp green salad. Or serve it our favorite way-alongside your favorite red-sauce pasta.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     side-dish

Time 30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) unsalted butter
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 large soft Italian or French loaf
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons flat-leaf parsley leaves, finely chopped

Steps:

  • Arrange a rack in the center of oven and preheat to 450 degrees F.
  • Melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until the butter is golden and the garlic is very fragrant, about 3 minutes.
  • Slice the bread in half lengthwise. Liberally brush the crust with the garlic butter. Turn the bread cut-side up. Slice each loaf crosswise at 2-inch intervals without cutting all the way through, making "pull-apart" garlic bread. Liberally brush the cut sides of the bread with more garlic butter, spreading any remaining garlic evenly over top. You should use all the garlic butter. Carefully transfer the bread to a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Sprinkle the loaves with the Parmesan and a pinch of salt and bake until the edges of the bread are a deep golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Top with the parsley. Serve warm.

SIMPLE GARLIC TOAST RECIPE



Simple Garlic Toast Recipe image

Super simple garlic toast that goes great with lasagna, spaghetti, chili, salads, and much more. It only takes three ingredients to make this tasty toasted garlic bread.

Provided by RecipeTips

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 pound French bread - plain or seasoned
8 tablespoons to 12 tablespoons of butter or margarine, softened (use more if needed)
Garlic salt

Steps:

  • Slice the bread into 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick slices. Butter each side generously with the softened butter. Lay buttered slices on a baking sheet and sprinkle the tops lightly with garlic salt. Place under the broiler in your oven until lightly toasted on top. Turn the slices over once the tops are toasted and toast the bottom side. Remove from the baking sheet when they are toasted on both sides. Serve and enjoy! Note: As you are toasting the bread, the slices will not toast evenly so watch closely and take the baking sheet out and turn the slices as they get done on one side. Remove them from the pan as they get toasted on both sides. They toast pretty quickly under the broiler once they get started so be sure to watch them closely so they do not burn.

GARLIC TOASTS



Garlic Toasts image

Provided by Ina Garten Bio & Top Recipes

Time 30m

Yield 20 to 25 toasts

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 baguette
1/4 cup good olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 garlic clove, halved lengthwise

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Slice the baguette diagonally in 1/4-inch-thick slices. Depending on the size of the baguette, you should get 20 to 25 slices.
  • Lay the slices in one layer on a sheet pan, brush each with olive oil, and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until browned and crisp. As soon as they're cool enough to handle, rub the top of the toasts with a cut side of the garlic. Serve at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality bread: A good loaf of bread will make all the difference in your garlic toast. Look for a bread that is crusty on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside.
  • Don't skimp on the butter: Butter is what makes garlic toast so delicious. Use a good quality butter that is high in fat content. Softened butter is easier to spread, but you can also use cold butter and let it soften slightly before spreading.
  • Use fresh garlic: Fresh garlic has a much better flavor than garlic powder or garlic salt. If you don't have fresh garlic, you can use a jar of minced garlic, but be sure to drain it well before using.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When you're cooking garlic toast, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the bread from getting evenly toasted.
  • Cook the garlic toast until it is golden brown: The garlic toast is done cooking when it is golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on it so that it doesn't burn.

Conclusion:

Garlic toast is a delicious and versatile side dish that can be served with a variety of meals. It's a great way to use up leftover bread, and it's also a perfect snack or appetizer. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make garlic toast that is sure to please everyone at your table.

Follow these tips and you'll be able to make perfect garlic toast every time.
