Parmesan Garlic Bread - Turn regular French bread into delicious, buttery parmesan garlic bread with this quick and easy recipe.
One of our favorite restaurants in our area is a seafood restaurant by Newport Beach in Southern California.
While the seafood dishes are truly outstanding, we go there mostly for the amazing, absolutely mouthwatering, and dare I say, the best garlic bread I have ever tasted.
The first time my 4-year old took a bite of the garlic bread, he told us that it was so delicious and that it was the best garlic bread ever!
The little boy sure has a sharp palate and knows his food very well.
After a recent visit, little G requested that I make it at home and this is my version.
This garlic bread is loaded with Parmesan cheese and garlic.
The garlic is pureed (no garlic powder please). The end result is the most garlicky, cheesy, and buttery garlic bread ever.
It’s very easy to make and effortless. The next time you head to supermarket, just go to he bakery section and pick up French bread.
In no time, you will have this garlic bread on your dining table!

Just curious, why French bread and not Italian?
French bread has a thicker crust which is ideal for garlic bread. You can use Italian bread nonetheless.
This is the BEST garlic bread I’ve ever tasted!!!! The only changes that i made were to just soften the butter instead of melting it….it spread much easier

People just believe that garlic bread is easy to make at home but most of them fail to judge if the home-made garlic bread can meet the required conditions. Not easy like add garlic to the bread then bake it. I’m fond of your recipe as it is specific and abosolutely similar to the recipe at restaurants for the best garlic bread at home.
Hi Ellen, yes this is a great recipe I love it.
