Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, combine the butter, garlic powder, minced garlic, and salt until well blended.
Arrange the bread slices on the prepared baking sheet and generously spread the garlic butter over each slice.
Bake in the oven for 7-9 minutes or until the edges are golden and crispy.
Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh parsley, and allow the garlic bread to cool slightly on a wire rack to maintain crispness before serving.

Notes

For an extra kick, add more garlic or some red pepper flakes to the butter mixture.
Make use of leftover garlic bread by slicing and toasting for a delicious bread base for sandwiches.
Any leftover garlic butter can be stored in the fridge for up to a week and used for other dishes or bread.
