Let's make gluten-free garlic bread. Because it's damn delicious and we should all be eating more garlic bread in our lives.

If you haven't tried the Against the Grain gluten-free baguettes, where have you been and WHY the heck not?
These baguettes are incredibly soft with the perfect texture and taste. The secret is they actually have CHEESE in them, like a Brazilian pao de queijo. Game changer!
Thankfully, these baguettes can be found at many supermarkets and grocery stores here in the northeast, as they are based out of Vermont. (Have you been? We love Vermont! Check out my gluten-free guide to Burlington right here).
But if you can't find these baguettes at the store, you can also order them on Thrive Market, where they are now available! You can take $25 off your first order and receive a FREE gift with your Thrive Market membership right here.
And THESE gluten-free baguettes are the reason I decided to make gluten-free garlic bread in the first place. You'll roast an entire head of garlic until it's super soft, then squeeze it out and add it to some soft butter with some spices, herbs, and sprinkle on parmesan cheese. Then, for an extra kick of crispiness and flavor, we broil the bread in the oven so it gets nice and golden brown. Perfection.
Ingredients You Need:
-Against the Grain gluten-free baguettes (or use any gluten-free baguette you like!)
-one head of garlic (we will roast in the oven, details below)
-unsalted butter
-olive oil
-sea salt & fresh cracked pepper
-paprika
-garlic powder
-freshly chopped parsley
-freshly grated parmesan cheese, if desired
How To Make This Garlic Bread
To make this garlic bread, leave the frozen baguettes to sit at room temperature while the garlic cooks, or just microwave them for 30 seconds to 1 minute.
Roast the garlic in the oven. Then combine it with the butter, herbs, and spices, until it forms a thick looking paste.
Spread the butter mixture over the baguettes, until evenly coated. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
Broil in the oven for 5-7 minutes until golden brown or desired crispiness, and enjoy!
What to Serve With Gluten-Free Garlic Bread
This would be a perfect side dish for a gluten-free pasta night on Meatless Monday!
Try it with gluten-free penne and cherry tomatoes or gluten-free burst cherry tomato spaghetti.
Serve it with some homemade spinach pesto, or maybe as a side dish for gluten-free spaghetti carbonara.
Or, if you want something more hearty, use this garlic bread to scoop up gluten-free beef stew or gluten and dairy-free potato leek soup!
No matter what you decide to serve this gluten-free garlic bread with, it will be a winner!

Gluten-Free Garlic Bread Recipe
Gluten-Free Garlic Bread
A scrumptious gluten-free garlic bread!
Ingredients
- 2 gluten-free baguettes, like Against the Grain
- 1 head of garlic
- ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- sea salt & freshly cracked black pepper
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder (optional, for extra garlic flavor)
- ¼ cup fresh chopped parsley
- freshly grated parmesan cheese, for sprinkling
Instructions
Remove baguettes from the freezer and bring to room temperature. Or, microwave for 30 seconds to 1 minute until soft.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Slice the top off the head of garlic so the cloves are exposed. Place on a small piece of aluminum foil and drizzle with the extra virgin olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, then wrap and cover in the foil.
Roast the garlic for 40 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes, then unwrap, and squeeze out the softened cloves and mix with softened butter, paprika, garlic powder (if using), parsley, and sea salt/pepper to taste. Mix well into a paste.
Slice the baguettes open and spread with the butter mixture. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese. Broil in the oven on a sheet pan for 5-7 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Enjoy!
