    The recipe was very easy and delicious. I did make some alterations though. We like our garlic, so I used 10 cloves instead of 6 and a little more salt. Also going by the other reviews, I only used 1/4 cup olive oil and then mixed the butter with the olive oil mixture and spread it all together. After baking for 10 mins as per instructions, I sprinkled some parmesan and broiled for a couple of minutes. Was delicious. We only had dried herbs on hand, I'm glad I used them but will try with fresh herbs next time.

    Love Love Love it!!! It was tasty and moist with the oil and butter, everyone ate it right up and it was their favorite part of the whole meal. I didn't use ciabatta bread, but used tuscany bread and it was great.

    Loved this recipe! The only change I made was I opened it up at the end and added a little mozzerella cheese on top. Everyone loved it!

    Good garlic bread. I didn't have fresh herbs so i used dry, but it still came out good. I also opened it up and broiled at the end - this is key if you want it to be crispy.

    It was a very easy recipe to follow although for some reason the butter on one side and garlic/olive oil mixture on the other side did not combine while cooking. So one half had butter and a little of the seasoning, and the other side tasted like garlic and olive oil. It was such an easy recipe though that I am willing to give it another shot and probably make a few changes to it so it will hopefully turn out better!

    Easy recipe that turned out great. I had to improvise a little since I did not have any parsley or fresh oregano (used dried oregano but the bread still came out great. It was very garlicky, which I loved, but if you don't you may want to use a little less garlic.

    This is really flavorful garlic bread. I read the reviews before making and cut down on the olive oil. I wouldn't do that again as 1/4 cup was not enought to cover the entire loaf. I don't see how it would work with 2 tablespoons. It definitely would not be spreadable. I'll stick to the original recipe next time. Fabulous.

    BEST GARLIC BREAD RECIPE EVER!
    NO NEED TO USE ALL THE OIL, IF YOU WATCH THE VIDEO YOU'LL SEE SHE USES IT TO SAUCE THE HERBS & GARLIC NOT TO SPREAD ON THE BREAD. I'LL TRY THE OTHER HERBS AND PARM SUGGESTIONS. LOVE IT!

    I absolutely LOVE this garlic bread, I've probably made it at least 2 dozen times. There are some parts of the recipe that I tweak, and it looks like other readers do, as well:

    It definitely calls for too much oil - I only use 2 tablespoons. And like so many others, I make sure to coat both halves of the bread thoroughly. I'm a huge garlic lover, so I tend to double the amount of garlic. I also prefer to use an herbed/seasoned bread, like rosemary and garlic or Italian herb. I often use focaccia in place of the ciabatta and it works very well.

    But, as I mentioned, this is my favorite garlic bread recipe. It is so easy, and you can use whatever herbs you have on hand. I often end up using basil, thyme, and parsley, and it's wonderful!
