Equipment
Ingredients
- ½ soft French loaf (or one whole baguette)
- 4 Tablespoons butter softened
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 Tablespoon pesto
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine softened butter, minced garlic, pesto, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mash together with a fork or spatula until ingredients are combined.
- Take ½ a loaf of soft French bread (or one whole baguette), and slice in half so that you can spread the garlic butter on each cut side.
- Spread the butter mixture on each half of the bread. Place bread in the air fryer basket, cut side up. Air fry at 380 degrees F for 6-8 minutes.
- Remove pesto garlic bread from air fryer and slice into smaller pieces if desired. Enjoy!
Notes
- You may want to pull the butter out an hour before using or place in the microwave for 5-10 seconds to slightly soften up.
- As noted above, you can use a baguette or soft French loaf to make the garlic bread. If using a French loaf, you'll use half the bread. If using a baguette, you will use the entire baguette.
- Cut the bread as needed to fit your air fryer basket.
- All air fryers cook differently. Watch carefully to make sure bread is done to your desired amount.
