Ingredients

4 - 5 tablespoon salted butter, softened to room temperature
3 - 5 large garlic cloves, minced
⅓ cup freshly grated parmesan cheese, more if desired
2 teaspoon minced fresh parsley
1 baguette, French bread or ciabatta

Instructions

Preheat air fryer to 350°F.
In a small bowl, mix together the softened butter, minced garlic, half of the parmesan, and parsley.
Cut the loaf in half horizontally. Depending on the size of your air fryer, cut the baguette into quarters or a size that will fit into air fryer.
Spread butter mixture over each piece of bread, place them in the air fryer, and sprinkle with the remaining parmesan cheese on top.
Air fry for 5 - 7 minutes, until golden and the cheese is slightly crispy on top.
Garnish with extra parsley, cut into individually sized pieces (if desired), and enjoy!
