These are delicious! Enjoy with any meal.
Garlic toast is one of my favorite dinner sides. I got this recipe from People Magazine! I almost burned the croissants, but they were still blissful.
Here are the ingredients:
1 head garlic, separated and peeled
Extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 sprig fresh rosemary, plus more for garnish
1 small bunch fresh thyme, plus more for garnish
Freshly cracked black pepper
3-4 medium-size store-bought croissants
Kosher salt
Small wedge Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, grated
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 250. Place the garlic cloves in a small, shallow, oven-proof container. Cover with olive oil until cloves are submerged. Add rosemary, thyme and black pepper to taste.
2. Cook in oven for 1.5 hours or until the cloves are tender and aromatic. Set aside and let cool completely, allowing the garlic and herbs to steep in the oil.
3. Slice the croissants in half lengthwise and toast in the oven for a few minutes until slightly browned. Place a few garlic cloves and a drizzle of the garlic oil on the warm croissants. Finish with a sprinkle of salt, grated cheese and chopped herbs.
Serves 4 to 6
Prep time: 10 minutes, plus cooling
Cook time: 1 hour 30 minutes
Like I said, I almost burned these, but they were really good. Next time I will toast instead of broil. Yum!
