This buttery, crispy Garlic Bread is the perfect comfort food. In just three minutes, the air fryer is ready.
Ingredients:
- 1 loaf of French bread
- 100 grammes of softened unsalted butter
- One tablespoon of olive oil
- 5–6 minced garlic cloves
- 3–4 tablespoons of chopped chives
- One tsp of dried Italian herbs
- One tsp of dehydrated parsley
Optional:
- ½ teaspoon red chilli flakes
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- One cup of finely shredded mozzarella cheese
Directions:
- Combine the olive oil, butter, garlic, chives, dried Italian herbs, dried parsley, red chilli flakes, and salt in a bowl.
- Mix everything thoroughly using a fork.
- Cut the French bread in half lengthwise in the middle. To get four quarters, cut each slice into two further pieces.
- Spread a liberal amount of garlic butter over each slice of bread using a butter knife.
- Evenly cover with shredded mozzarella cheese, then scatter some chopped chives and Italian herbs on top.
To air fry bread:
place it in a single layer in an air fryer that has been preheated. Cook for 3–4 minutes at 200 °C (400 °F) or until the cheese is completely melted and browned.
For oven:
Place the bread on a baking tray in a preheated oven. Once the cheese is browned on top, bake it for 8 minutes at 200 °C (400 °F) and then broil it for 2 minutes.
Cut, then warmly serve!
Notes
- If you are using salted butter, skip the salt in the recipe.
- You can use fresh parsley instead of chives.
VARIATIONS:
- Spread pesto for a burst of basil flavour.
- Add a little Parmesan to the garlic butter mixture.
- Instead of using red chilli peppers, use jalapeños.
Add more pepperoni or shredded chicken to make it more meaty. - Add chopped bell pepper and black olives as toppings to give it a pizza-inspired look.
