Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, garlic powder, minced garlic, and kosher salt until well mixed.
Arrange the slices of bread on the prepared baking sheet. Spread the garlic butter mixture generously on each slice.
Bake in the preheated oven for 7-9 minutes or until the bread is golden and crispy around the edges.
Garnish the garlic bread with freshly chopped parsley and let cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
