This roasted garlic bread is life. It’s one of my favorite things to serve at parties and gatherings. Garlic bread can scare off people (bad breath, strong flavors, etc), but roasted garlic bread brings everyone to the table.
Roasted garlic smells amazing. It’s slightly sweeter and milder in flavor compared to raw garlic.
This roasted garlic bread is a wonderful appetizer to serve alongside a chilled bottle of Jadot rosé. Add some roasted almonds, fresh strawberries and grapes, and call it a party. Get ready for dining al fresco and basking in the warm weather with friends and family! Grab a few bottles of Jadot rosé and enjoy!
Garlic Bread Ingredients
Roasted garlic mixed with softened butter and simply seasoned with salt, black better, and a touch of parmesan cheese is absolute heaven!
Roasted Garlic
You’ll need two large heads of garlic for this recipe. Keep it mind that it takes about 40 minutes to roast the garlic. However, this may done up to two days in advance.
Butter
You will need one stick (half cup) of butter. Combine softened butter with roasted garlic, salt, pepper, and parmesan cheese to make the most delicious roasted garlic butter spread!
Bread
Any kind of crusty bread works well for making garlic bread. Highly recommend French bread, Italian bread, or baguettes.
Seasoning
Season the roasted garlic butter with kosher salt, freshly cracker black pepper, and grated parmesan cheese. The additional cheese adds the perfect amount of salty umami kick. Garnish the baked garlic bread with fresh chopped parsley or other green herbs.
Louis Jadot Rose Wine
You have probably heard of Louis Jadot before. They’re the #1 French wine in the United States and this year their introducing their French rosé! Today I’m sharing a super easy and deliciously savory recipe to pair with Jadot Rosé.
This rosé is floral and fruity with notes of red currants and raspberries. It’s mellow enough to easy drinking on it’s on, but it’s even better when paired with certain foods.
It stands up really well against zesty or spicy foods (think Thai food!).But most of all, it’s perfect with picnic foods like grilled vegetables, charcuterie and cheese boards, pasta salads, and all things GARLIC!

- Bake for 30-40 minutes until the garlic cloves can be easily pierced with a fork. Allow garlic to cool. Once garlic is cool enough to handle, extract the roasted garlic by squeezing the bulb.
Roasted Garlic Butter:
- In a medium bowl, combine softened butter, extracted roasted garlic, salt, black pepper, and 2 tablespoons of grated parmesan cheese. Mix until smooth.
Assembly:
- Slice French bread in half horizontally. Place bread cut side up on a baking sheet. Evenly spread roasted garlic butter over bread. Sprinkle remaining 2 tablespoons of grated parmesan cheese over bread.
- Set buttered bread until broiler for 90 seconds to 2 minutes until butter has melted and bread is lightly toasted. Allow to cool for 3-5 minutes. Slice bread using a serrated knife. Garnish with chopped parsley. Enjoy warm.

Oh my word. I would destroy the whole loaf!
This could be my dinner! Love the crunch and flavor of garlic bread – even better with a glass of wine.
Oh wow, this is the BEST garlic bread ever!! I cannot wait to make it!
Roasted garlic is the BEST! And I do love making garlic bread with it…I usually pile on the cheese as well. I’ll try yours too!
This is my ideal Friday night dinner in the summer – wine included!
Best garlic bread ever! Great to go with any pasta dish!
Rose = summer! Such a perfect wine for so many light summer dishes. You have done it justice by pairing it with roasted garlic:)
?? i’m not afraid of a bit of raw garlic, but this one sounds a lot more delicate and crowd friendly (which is a good thing because i shouldn’t be allowed to eat all the garlic bread by myself lol).
