Ingredients
- 1 head garlic, unpeeled
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup (2-sticks) butter, softened
- 3 tablespoons minced parsley leaves
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1loaf sourdough bread, split horizontally
Directions
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
Cut top off garlic head. Place garlic on a piece of aluminum foil; drizzle with olive oil. Fold edges together to seal. Bake 30 minutes; cool.
Squeeze cooked garlic into a medium bowl. Garlic will be soft and sticky. Add butter, parsley salt and pepper, stirring to combine.
Spread cut halves of bread evenly with garlic butter mixture. Broil 5 1/2 inches from heat, with oven door partially opened, for 2 to 3 minutes, or until butter melts and bread is toasted. Cut into slices to serve.

Delicious! The roasted garlic gives a sweet, garlicky taste. You could make the butter and keep it in the fridge if you don't need to make a full loaf of bread.

Me and my boy friend went over to my fathers house for dinner one night and his girl friend made this AMAZING garlic bread and I forgot to ask her how she made it. I can't get the recipe because they are on the road so I started looking up recipes online and came across this one. It is EXACTLY like the bread we had that night! But instead of cooking the garlic in the oven I put it on the grill while I was smoking my steaks and it got this amazing char on the skin and had a mild smoky flavor that really enhanced the flavor! I also used the grill to finish off the bread and it gave it a great crunch and crust without drying it out. So if you are BBQing this summer definitely give it a try! I promise you won't be sorry!...

Love this recipe. Getting ready to make it for the second time. Keeps very well in the refrigerator and intend to make it a staple to always have it ready in the refrigerator. I put it on sliced french bread and put it under the broiler to slightly brown around the edges.
