Garlic bread:

Instructions
 

Garlic bread butter spread:

  • In a mixing bowl add the butter and stir it until pale and creamy- around 2 minutes.
  • Add the minced garlic, fresh parsley, dried herbs, paper, salt, greek yogurt, parmesan cheese and stir will. It is done.
  • Store it in a jar and label it, place in the fridge and use as needed.

Garlic bread (with cheese option):

  • Preheat the oven to 180 Deg C and line a baking tray with baking paper.
  • Slice your hot dog rolls into half length ways. Spread 1 tbsp of the mixture over the bread and spread it evenly. At this point you can leave it as it is or top it with cheese.
  • Place on the baking tray and bake for 10-12 minutes without cheese or 12-15 minutes with cheese until golden and crispy on the edges. If baking with the cheese, keep an eye on the bread as it should not burn.
  • Remove from the oven, cut and serve while still hot.

Notes

  • Check the blog above for details on the substitutes.
  • Add more spread to the bread it needed. the suggested amount is an estimate based on my palate.
  • The baking time will depend on how you like your garlic bread, I prefer mine more crusty on the edges so I bake it longer if needed.
