Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 3 teaspoons fresh parsley finely chopped, divided
  • 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese optional

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter, minced garlic, 2 teaspoons of finely chopped parsley, and grated Parmesan cheese if using. Mix until everything is well blended, creating a delicious garlic butter spread.
  • Take your baguette and slice it into 1-inch thick pieces. This thickness ensures that each slice has enough surface area to hold the garlic butter while achieving that perfect crunch.
  • Generously spread the garlic butter mixture on one side of each baguette slice. Make sure to cover the bread evenly for maximum flavor.
  • Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C). Place the buttered baguette slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to do this in batches.
  • Air fry the garlic bread for about 5-6 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning!
  • Once done, remove the garlic bread from the air fryer and sprinkle the remaining teaspoon of fresh parsley on top. Serve warm and enjoy every bite of your Air-Fryer Garlic Bread!
