This bread goes well with a wide variety of menus. A word of caution though: Make sure teenage males come at the end of the buffet line when serving this bread, for they seem to inhale it. In fact, you may want to make two loaves, doubling what would be a normal portion, for this always disappears! Ingredients:
1 large unsliced loaf french bread (large size loaf..not the small bagette) |
1 cup butter |
1/2 teaspoon paprika |
1 teaspoon poppy seed |
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder |
Directions:
1. Trim all the crust from the bread except the bottom crust.
2. Slice down the center of the loaf lengthwise being careful not to cut through the bottom crust.
3. Then cut across the bread in 1/2 slices, again being careful not to cut through the bottom crust.
4. Melt butter, add paprika, garlic and poppy seeds.
5. Using a pastry brush, brush butter mixture onto sides and top of bread.
6. Wrap bread in foil until ready to bake.
7. When ready to bake, roll foil down sides of bread to form a pan.
8. Bake in preheated oven 400F for 15 minutes.
9. Enjoy!
