A deliciously easy and flavorful garlic bread recipe that will elevate any meal.
Preheat your oven's broiler to high.
Ensure the broiler rack is positioned to allow even toasting of the bread.
In a mixing bowl, combine the butter, mayonnaise, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, onion powder, garlic powder, black pepper, parsley, salt, and parmesan cheese until smooth.
Mix thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed for consistent flavor.
Slice the baguette in half lengthwise and spread the butter mixture generously over the cut sides.
Use a spoon or spatula to evenly spread the mixture for a uniform coating.
Place the bread halves on a baking sheet and broil until golden and bubbly, about 3-5 minutes.
Keep a close eye on the bread to prevent burning; broilers can vary in intensity.
Remove from the oven, slice into serving pieces, and enjoy warm.
Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
