What you need for this Garlic Bread

One of the main ingredients is my Garlic Butter recipe. For that one you need:

• vegan butter
• olive oil
• garlic
• garlic powder
• parsley
• basil
• a pinch of salt and pepper to taste

For the Garlic bread itself, you will need the prepared butter and in addition:

• 1 baguette or bread of choice, choose gluten free bread if need
• olive oil for brushing

How to make Garlic Bread

Preheat your oven to 425°F. Brush baguette or bread with olive oil and  generously spread garlic butter on bread.

Distribute the garlic butter bread on a prepared sheet pan prepared with parchment paper and bake for around 10 minutes in the preheated oven.

Alternatively to the oven version, heat the garlic butter in a sauce pan. Then add the bread slices with the open side down into the garlic butter and let it roast for 2 minutes. The result should be a golden brown top when you take the bread out of the pan.  

This garlic bread recipe from scratch is delicious for quick and easy meals on its own.

But it is also amazing as a side, for example to this One Pot Chili Mac and Cheese or the Instant Pot Spaghetti with Simple Tomato Sauce.

Planning a date night with your sweetheart? This is a must make to any dinner ideas for two. It goes well with any dish and will complement any meal.

Tips and variations:

The recipe is really flexible. You can make a homemade garlic bread with regular bread. Choose your favorite and make it like I did in the recipe instructions. Also I could imagine it is really good with this Artisan Bread (one bowl, Dutch oven).

Oil free: just skip the oil for brushing and for the garlic butter. Please make sure when making the garlic butter that the vegan butter is always at room temperature for easy mixing and spreading.

Bruschetta: make a bruschetta recipe choose toppings like chopped tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix and set aside. After baking the homemade garlic bread you can add the bruschetta toppings. Enjoy now, or put it in the oven for around 2 minutes.

Cheesy garlic bread: just put a bit vegan cheddar or other dairy free cheese on top and bake until melted.

Garlic toast: spread some toast with garlic butter. Bake as same in the instructions or use a skillet to roast the toast until golden and brown.
