Ingredients

  • 1 large loaf French Bread wheat or white
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter (salted) softened
  • 1 tablespoon granulated garlic
  • 2 teaspoons ground paprika (sweet paprika)
  • 1 tablespoon dried parsley flakes
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. 
  • Cut the French bread.  It can be cut in half lengthwise, cut into quarters, or cut into thick slices; however you prefer. 
  • Using a spatula, spread the butter on top of the cut side of the bread.  
  • Sprinkle granulated garlic on top of the butter.  Using the spatula, spread the granulated garlic evenly over the bread. 
  • Sprinkle paprika and parsley flakes over the butter and garlic and using a spatula spread it evenly over the bread.
  • Top with the grated Parmesan cheese and using a spatula lightly spread it over the top of the bread. 
  • Wrap the garlic bread in foil and set on a cookie sheet.
  • Bake in a preheated oven (at 375 degrees F.) for 10 minutes then remove the bread from the oven, carefully open the foil up, and put the bread back in the oven so it will toast.  
  • Continue baking in the oven for another 5 to 8 minutes until the bread is hot all the way through and the top is slightly toasted.
    Serve warm.
