I tried to find a recipe on here for garlic butter to make mini garlic bread loaves for OAMC. I was surprised at how few recipes there were to choose from. This is the recipe I wound up creating. I spread this liberally onto both cut sides of 6 Italian bread rolls that I cut in half lengthwise like a submarine sandwich. Then tightly wrap each roll in aluminum foil (have to use that new Reynold's recycled foil!) and put inside a 2 gallon freezer Zip-loc bag. I keep reusing the bag to refill it with new rolls. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon garlic, minced from a jar, water packed (i used a tbsp) |
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil |
1 tablespoon italian seasoning (i used a tbsp) |
2 teaspoons pepper, freshly cracked and ground (i did about 50 cranks on the pepper mill which is about 3 tsp or 1 tbsp) |
1 cup salted butter, softened (2 sticks) |
Directions:
1. Put the softened butter into a bowl.
2. Add the pepper in a little pile on top of the butter.
3. Brown the minced garlic in a non-stick skillet on low heat until the water evaporates.
4. Add a drizzle of EVOO and stir to combine.
5. Continue to cook until the garlic begins to turn light brown.
6. Add the Italian seasoning and another drizzle of EVOO.
7. Stir to combine.
8. Leave on heat until the seasonings feel like they have softened under your spatula.
9. Scrape the garlic mixture into the butter bowl on top of the pile of pepper (yes, while it's hot, it will melt a little of the butter to better blend the flavors).
10. Wait about 10 min for the garlic/seasoning to cool a little then mix everything together.
11. If using to make garlic bread spread liberally onto the cut sides of the bread and put two spread sides together facing each other. Wrap in foil and either freeze in a Zip-loc bag or bake at 350 degrees for about 6 minutes. If baking off the bread from the freezer allow the bread to defrost first.
