Garlic Bread Using Garlic Powder

Garlic Bread Using Garlic Powder

Garlic bread issues. Help?

Okay, Im making garlic bread as a side for dinner.
But i dont have garlic cloves or anything like that.

Is it possible to make garlic bread using garlic POWDER instead? If so, please give me the recipe.

Your help is greatly appriciated.!

=]

Melt some butter in a frying pan.
Add ( granulated garlic if you have otherwise use the powder but less because it's stronger).
Add some Oregano and Dried basil leaves ( if you use unsalted butter add salt if you use salted butter don't add salt).
Add some olive oil.
The herbs are optional, you can do without them if you don't have them.
Use sparingly if you do.

After it all melts and you stirred, brush it on the bread and add Paprika( if you have) for color and some Romano or Parmigiana cheese.

Put them on a baking sheet and bake on 325-350F for 5-7 minutes( you'll see the edges getting brown) and their done.
