Author Notes
This is my version of Jake Cohen’s roasted garlic bread that went viral on TikTok in 2021. I know it has been many moons ago, but I just got a chance to try it.
My version includes a touch of thyme to add a hint of peppery flavor. I really love the addition of thyme, which I think really rounds up the flavor.
Each bite of this will give you the right amount of garlic flavor on a bed of crunchy baguettes. I only use 1 garlic bulb for this recipe, way less than his recipe. Honestly, the garlic flavor is subtle, but it is there. I want everyone to be able to enjoy this roasted garlic bread and eat a lot of it. Easily the best snack! —Devina | Dough Not Be Mad

Preheat your oven again to 205°C/400°F and remember to soften your butter.
-
Squeeze out the roasted garlic from its skin. Add the softened butter, salt, parsley, gochugaru, and thyme. Mix and adjust to your taste.
-
Prepare the bread. Cut the baguette lengthwise or slice it in the middle into two halves.
-
Spread the roasted garlic butter mixture on top of the bread and bake for about 5-10 mins. Please keep an eye on them and check for doneness after 5 mins. If they aren’t crispy enough, bake for 1 more min and keep checking on them until you get your desired crunchiness.

Let it cool for just about 5-10 mins so it doesn't burn your mouth when you eat it. Cut them into smaller pieces and enjoy!
