Generously slather a sweet and pungent garlic sauce made with butter, garlic, honey, and sugar onto baguette slices, then bake in an oven or air fryer until golden and irresistible. This is the perfect homemade snack that anyone can easily make and enjoy, perfect for any occasion. We’re revealing the secret to our magical garlic sauce, a perfect harmony of butter, garlic, honey, and sugar!
Main Ingredients- 1/3 Baguette
- 60g Unsalted Butter
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s prepare the butter for our garlic sauce. Place 60g of unsalted butter in a microwave-safe dish. Microwave in 20-30 second intervals, checking frequently, until the butter is completely melted. Be careful not to overheat or burn it.
Step 2
Now, let’s enhance the flavor of the garlic sauce. If you’re using whole garlic cloves, mince them very finely with a knife. While store-bought minced garlic works, using freshly minced garlic will provide a much more vibrant and pungent aroma, making your garlic bread exceptionally delicious.
Step 3
To the melted butter, add the prepared minced garlic. Stir in 3 tablespoons of honey for sweetness, 1 teaspoon of sugar, and 1 teaspoon of dried parsley flakes for an aromatic touch. Use a spatula or fork to mix all ingredients thoroughly until well combined, creating a delectable garlic sauce.
Step 4
Slice the baguette into desired portions. Cutting them about 1.5 to 2 cm thick (about 0.6 to 0.8 inches) allows for a generous amount of sauce and creates a wonderful texture when baked. If you don’t have a baguette, sliced bread cut in half also makes a fantastic garlic bread.
Step 5
Generously spread the homemade garlic sauce all over the top surface of each baguette slice. Be sure to cover the entire surface evenly with plenty of sauce; this ensures you’ll get the full, fragrant garlic flavor after baking.
Step 6
It’s time to bake our baguette garlic bread! Place the prepared slices into an oven preheated to 180°C (350°F) or an air fryer. Bake for approximately 12 minutes. Cooking times can vary depending on your oven or air fryer model, so keep an eye on them and check the browning periodically to prevent burning. They are perfectly done when they turn a beautiful golden brown.
Step 7
Voilà! Your baguette garlic bread is complete with a truly appetizing appearance. The outside is wonderfully crispy, while the inside remains soft and moist, and the sweet and pungent garlic aroma fills your mouth with every bite. Enjoy them warm for the best flavor!
