Servings: 20 pieces
Calories: 95kcal
Ingredients
- 1 loaf of French Bread
- 1 stick Salted Butter, room temperature (½ cup=8 tablespoons)
- ¾ teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried Dill Weed
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375℉.
- Remove the wrapper of the butter and place in a bowl.
- Add the dried granulated garlic powder and dill weed to the bowl.
- Thoroughly combine with either a rubber spatula or hand mixer.
- Over a cutting board, slice the french bread into 1 inch thick slices. (Optional: do not slice all of the way thru the loaf so it can stay in tact as you move it to the oven)
- Spread about 1 teaspoon of the herbed butter onto one side of each piece of bread.
- Transfer the entire buttered loaf of bread to a large sheet of aluminum foil.
- Make a fold in the foil down the length of the loaf then crimp the edges closed. (Make the folds simple to open because you need to check the bread towards the end of cooking)
- Cook the foil wrapped loaf of garlic bread in the center of the oven for 20 minutes.
- Vent the foil open on the bread then cook another 5-10 minutes longer to crisp up the exterior while maintaining a pillowy-soft inside.
- Serve warm!
Notes
If your salted butter is still in the refrigerator, you can warm it to room temperature quickly by microwaving the stick of butter in a bowl for 50-60 seconds, power level 2.
