Coconut Free Classic Garlic Bread
Few things hit the table quite like a tray of golden, garlicky bread straight from the broiler — and this version is as straightforward and satisfying as it gets. The garlic butter comes together in minutes with softened unsalted butter, fresh minced garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper, then gets spread generously across a halved baguette before going under the broiler. Watching coconut-derived oils and additives sneak into packaged garlic breads and spreads can be a real headache, but every ingredient here is clean and easy to verify. The broiler does the heavy lifting fast, crisping the edges and bubbling the butter into something deeply fragrant and irresistible. A optional scatter of grated Parmesan before broiling adds a savory, nutty finish that takes it over the top. Slice it up and serve immediately — this is the kind of bread that disappears before anything else on the table does.
