Ingredients
1 loaf French or Italian bread (or any bread of choice)
4 tbsp butter (softened)
3 cloves garlic (minced) or 1 tsp garlic powder
1 tbsp fresh parsley (chopped) or 1 tsp dried parsley
½ tsp salt
½ tsp Italian seasoning (optional)
¼ cup grated Parmesan (optional)
Instructions
Mix the Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, combine softened butter, garlic, parsley, salt, and Italian seasoning. Stir in Parmesan if using.
Prep the Bread: Slice the bread into halves or thick slices. Spread the garlic butter evenly on each piece.
Air Fry: Place the bread slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook at 350°F (175°C) for 4-6 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
Serve & Enjoy: Let the bread cool for a few seconds before serving warm.
Notes
“For extra crunch, air fry for an extra minute.”
“Make it cheesy by adding shredded mozzarella and air frying for an additional minute.”
“Freezer-friendly! Butter the bread, freeze it, and cook directly from frozen.”
“For a more intense garlic flavor, try using air fryer roasted garlic instead of fresh garlic.”
