Step 1

Cut the loaf of bread in half crosswise. Set one of the halves aside to use for something else later. Cut the remaining piece in half lengthwise.

Step 2

Mix together the butter, garlic and parsley. Spread the mixture evenly along the cut half of both pieces of bread.

Step 3

Bake in a 425℉ oven for 10 minutes, until the edges of the bread are golden and crispy. If desired, place under the broiler for a minute or two, but watch very closely to avoid burning.

Step 4

Cut into 6 equal sized pieces.
