Hazelnut Free Classic Garlic Bread
Garlic bread is one of those side dishes that makes every meal feel like a special occasion, and this version delivers serious flavor with a beautifully golden, bubbling crust. The spread is built from softened butter, fresh minced garlic, and flat-leaf parsley — simple, honest ingredients that come together in minutes. A quick pass under the broiler is all it takes to transform a baguette into something crispy at the edges and irresistibly fragrant. For anyone navigating tree nut allergies or sensitivities, store-bought garlic breads and restaurant versions can be surprisingly risky due to shared production lines or unexpected additions — making a homemade batch the smartest move. Every ingredient here is straightforward and easy to verify, so you can serve it with total confidence. The optional Parmesan adds a savory, slightly nutty depth without introducing any actual nuts into the equation. Slice it up and get it to the table fast, because it never lasts long.
