Pro Tips/Recipe Note
- Make sure you stir up the butter solution with the pastry brush for each new piece of bread. The minced garlic will settle to the bottom.
- Some bread types might be more “thirsty” than other kinds. If you’re running out of the butter mixture with the last few pieces, drizzle in a bit more olive oil to extend the volume.
- Yes, you can use gluten-free bread for this! I would increase the olive oil to 3-4 tbsp since gluten-free bread tends to be a little drier and may absorb more liquid.
- Throw a little grated Parmesan on top of the bread after you’ve flipped it, and cook for 2 minutes for a cheesy bread option.
