Why is my garlic bread not crispy? ›

Wrapping the loaf in foil (or parchment paper) ensures this result. For a crispier garlic bread that's more toasted on top, don't wrap and bake for a shorter period (10 to 15 minutes). For another slightly more crisp take on garlic bread, see our basil and cheese garlic bread.

Garlic bread (also called garlic toast) consists of bread (usually a baguette, sour dough, or bread such as ciabatta), topped with garlic and occasionally olive oil or butter and may include additional herbs, such as oregano or chives. It is then either grilled until toasted or baked in a conventional or bread oven.

By baking the bread in foil for the first 10 minutes, you allow the ciabatta to soften, which will give you a pillowy, chewy inside. Wrapping the bread also keeps the garlic from burning. Unwrapping the bread and baking it more adds color and will crisp up the crust for the perfect crunchy outside.

Ingredient notes. French bread: I prefer the light, soft crumb and crusty exterior of a French loaf for Garlic Bread, but if you can only find Italian bread, that will work just fine. Butter: Cold butter usually softens up in about 30 minutes when left out at room temperature.

It's parsley

Yep, the green flecks are finely-chopped parsley.

If you're a fan of fancy, thick-cut toast, then Texas toast is the perfect slice for you! It has a unique texture compared to regular garlic bread; the crust tends to be soft rather than crispy, while the interior is fluffy, pillowy, and soaked through with butter and garlic flavour.

Garlic bread's benefits depend on the type of bread used to make it. Wheat garlic bread is loaded with healthy fibre and nutrients that regulate blood sugar levels and boost metabolism. Most garlic bread recipes are high in fat, but a few minor adjustments can make this tasty appetizer very healthy.

Garlic Bread

The Italians do eat garlic rubbed on toasted bread – with olive oil, not butter – and call it bruschetta. But they will toast an Italian bread such as ciabatta, not a French baguette, as has become popular in the UK and America.

Why is my garlic bread soggy? ›

Adding already-melted butter to your pieces of bread can often result in a soggy texture because the bread absorbs too much moisture before going into the oven, which makes it much harder to achieve that crunchy, toasted top layer on each piece.

Bread cheese is a cheese that originated in northern Scandinavia and is traditionally made from reindeer's milk. Also known as leipäjuusto or juustoleipä (hoo-stah-lee-pah), which means "cheese bread" in Finnish, bread cheese is made from curds that resemble feta cheese.

Still, garlic bread doesn't have to be completely off the healthy eating table. Opting for a crusty whole grain loaf as your base gives you more fiber, making it more filling. Choosing a heart-healthy oil like olive oil over butter cuts down on saturated fat.
