Equipment

  • Bowl
  • Spatula

Ingredients

  • French Bread: 2 rustic loaves with a golden crust and a chewy interior
  • Garlic Minced: 4 to 6 cloves finely chopped for a robust flavor infusion
  • Salt and Pepper: To taste allowing you to tailor the seasoning to your personal preference
  • Fresh Parsley: 2 teaspoons finely chopped, adding a burst of vibrant green freshness
  • Unsalted Butter: 1 cup of premium high-quality unsalted butter, for a rich and indulgent touch

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven according to the instructions on the French bread packaging. Typically, it would be around 375°F (190°C).
  • In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium-low heat.
  • Add the finely chopped garlic to the melted butter and sauté for 1-2 minutes until the garlic becomes fragrant. Be careful not to brown the garlic.
  • Season the garlic butter with salt and pepper to taste. Remember that the French bread will also absorb some of the flavors, so you can go for a slightly bolder taste.
  • Stir in the finely chopped fresh parsley into the garlic butter mixture, infusing it with a burst of vibrant green freshness.
  • Take the rustic loaves of French bread and cut them into slices, keeping them attached at the bottom, like a fan, but not all the way through. This helps the garlic butter mixture seep into the bread during baking.
  • Using a brush or a spoon, generously apply the prepared garlic butter mixture between the slices of the French bread, ensuring an even distribution of flavors.
  • Wrap each prepared loaf in aluminum foil, making sure it's tightly sealed to prevent freezer burn.
  • If not baking immediately, label the wrapped loaves with the date and freeze for later use. They can be stored in the freezer for up to a few weeks.
  • When ready to bake, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Place the frozen garlic bread directly on the oven rack or on a baking sheet.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the bread is heated through, the edges are crispy, and the garlic butter has melted into the bread.
  • Remove from the oven, carefully unwrap, and serve the Costco-style frozen garlic bread while it's warm and aromatic.

Notes

  • Make sure to preheat your oven before putting the garlic bread in. This will help the bread cook evenly.
  • Let the garlic bread cool before serving. This will help keep it nice and crispy.
  • If you want to add extra flavor, you can brush the garlic bread with melted butter before baking.
  • You can also sprinkle some Parmesan cheese on top of the garlic bread before baking.
  • If you want to add some heat, sprinkle some red pepper flakes on top of the garlic bread before baking.
  • To make sure the garlic bread is cooked evenly, rotate the baking sheet halfway through baking.
