It is a humble dish. It doesn’t get much attention. Sometimes it’s an afterthought at the check stand, when one passes the baskets of foil wrapped logs or sneaks down the frozen food aisle real quick to grab a loaf of frozen garlic bread.
I’m not sure that anyone waxes eloquent over its virtues. In fact, it’s sometimes forgotten all together as a culinary option.
But you know what? Garlic bread is awesome! And it deserves a little more attention. For all its simplicity, it’s the first thing to go when I serve an Italian buffet.
My kids even use garlic bread as a bartering commodity! Yes, indeed, they recognize its value. And so should you!

Especially if you stash a few loaves in the freezer.

French bread – while baguette is considered traditional French bread, I’m actually talking about the Americanized version here, you know the fluffy loaf from the grocery store bakery. You can also bake your own bread if you prefer or use a real baguette. Keep in mind that grocery stores often unload day-old bread for cheap. This is a great way to use it since you’re going to toast it anyway.
butter – I like using real butter, but you can also substitute margarine, ghee, plant butter, or even olive oil to make frozen garlic butter.
garlic – Fresh garlic will give you the best flavor. If you’ve got some roast garlic cloves on hand, that will take this over the top. In a pinch you can use garlic powder, but it won’t be as good. Love garlic? Be sure to try my Creamy Garlic Dressing recipe.
Straight up classic frozen garlic bread is pretty tasty, but you can make it different if you like.
Make the garlic butter.
Homemade garlic butter is the best way to go. In a small mixing bowl, combine the butter, garlic, and parsley with a fork until well combined.
To save even more:
You know I don’t typically want to make something if I can’t make it good as well as cheap. Here are some of the strategies you can use to make this recipe more economical:
- Buy day-old bread on clearance to maximize your savings on this recipe.
- The holiday season is a great time to stock up on butter! You’ll get the best prices, and you can freeze the butter until you’re ready to use it.
