Do you love garlic bread? I do too! It’s so good, and my family requests it all the time. If we need a quick dinner, I toss together an Italian salad and serve garlic bread on the side.
Garlic Cheese Bread {with Olive Oil}
Traditional garlic bread is made with butter and has a delicious buttery, garlicky aroma. But what to do when you crave warm garlic bread but are out of butter?
This happened to me recently. I had all the ingredients except butter. So, I experimented a little and came up with a super delicious garlic bread with olive oil.
My easy garlic bread recipe is incredibly aromatic, loaded with melty cheese, and has those golden brown, crispy edges that make a really good garlic bread.
Great Garlic Bread Recipe
I kept the ingredient list intentionally minimal, and the prep time is short, too. Perfect when you need a quick snack, easy side dish, or tasty appetizer option for effortless entertaining.
This easy recipe is essentially just bread, garlic, olive oil, parmesan, and fresh herbs roasted on a baking sheet. You’ll love the simple ingredients and how quick it is to pull together!
Parmesan is a salty cheese, and I didn’t need to add any additional salt. However, if you’re using a young or mild parmesan, you can season your butter-free garlic bread with a pinch of salt.
Garlic Bread Recipe: How To Make It
As I just explained, my recipe uses a mix of olive oil and grated cheese in place of butter. Here are a few more butter substitutes you can try:
All ingredients in this cheesy garlic bread with olive oil are vegan except for the parmesan cheese. To make the dish vegan and dairy-free, either omit the cheese or replace it with vegan parmesan cheese.
Once you try this easy garlic bread without butter, you’ll make it again and again! It’s also super simple to double in case you want to prepare more servings.
Dairy Free Garlic Bread
Garlic bread is a tasty, standalone snack and side dish for any meal. It’s an excellent pairing for salad, stew, or soup (like this tomato soup or pumpkin soup), meatballs and pasta. We also love it dipped in marinara sauce. Yum!
Sure! My no butter garlic bread recipe works with garlic powder, too. Instead of fresh garlic, prepare the mixture with 2 to 4 tsp garlic powder.
No, I don’t recommend it. Pre-minced garlic sometimes has a sour aftertaste that tastes off in garlic bread. Stick to fresh garlic or use garlic powder.
Garlic Bread Spread Recipe
Rustic, crusty bread with a soft interior is ideal for garlic bread. A loaf of French bread, baguette, ciabatta bread, or artisan sourdough bread are great options for garlic bread. You can even use toast if that is what you have.
Yes! To make grilled garlic bread, grill on a hot grill for 2 to 3 minutes until toasted. Watch carefully as to not burn the bread.
Absolutely! Swap out the olive oil for 2 sticks / 1 cup softened butter. You can use both salted and unsalted butter. Be sure to take the butter out of the fridge to soften an hour before getting started. Then prepare the garlic butter mixture as described in the recipe.
Minute Easy Garlic Bread Recipe
I doubt that you will have leftovers. But if you do, store them in an airtight container at room temperature. Avoid storing garlic bread in the fridge as it can dry out and become stale quickly.
Garlic bread tastes best fresh, and since it takes only minutes to make, I recommend making it shortly before serving. You can, however, prepare the garlic spread in advance. Then all you have to do is slather it on and bake.
The garlic olive oil spread will last for 1 week in an airtight container in the fridge or in the freezer for up to 2 months.

You can also freeze unbaked, assembled garlic bread. Slather the bread with garlic paste, and then arrange on a baking sheet. Flash-freeze until solid, for 1 to 2 hours. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap / cling film and then foil. Freeze for up to 2 months.Disclaimer: This article may contains affiliate links.

Vegan Garlic Bread Recipe — The Mom 100
So if you’re been wondering how to make a butter-free garlic bread or if it’s even possible, you’ve come to the right place! This recipe is easy and delicious and is sure to be a hit and cause serious cravings once you’ve eaten it.
This recipe is super easy and comes together in under twenty minutes, so it’s a great option for a last-minute side dish or appetiser.
The first step you need to do is preheat your oven and sheet tray. Pop a sheet tray in the oven while you preheat it to 200°C (400°F).
Cheesy Garlic Bread Recipe
While the oven (and tray) is preheating, split your baguette half length-wise. Depending on the size of your bread and tray, you may need to cut it in half width-wise, as well.
Once the oven and tray have been preheated, remove the tray from the oven and place your bread halves cut-side down on the hot tray.
Cover the tray with foil and transfer to the oven for about ten minutes – just until the bread softens and gets golden and toasty on the cut side.
The Best Garlic Cheese Toast
While your bread is toasting, it’s time to prep your garlic oil. Thinly slice a few cloves of garlic and add it to a small saucepan. Pour over a bit of extra virgin olive oil and set the pan over medium-low heat.
Allow the oil to slowly head up, agitating the garlic slices every so often, and cook until the garlic is fragrant and beginning to toast and turn light golden brown, this should only take about five minutes. This will infuse the oil with a garlic flavour and cause the slices to sweeten and mellow.
While the sliced garlic is cooking and infusing, grate another few cloves of garlic into a small heat-proof bowl using a rasp-style grater.
Quick Garlic Butter Dinner Rolls (no Yeast)
Add some chilli flakes to the bowl if you want a bit of a kick along with some flaky (or simply coarse) sea salt.
As soon as the sliced garlic has turned a pale golden brown, pour the oil over the grated garlic and chili flakes. Use a small spoon to stir to combine.
Remove your toasted bread from the oven. Take off the foil (but keep it to use in just a minute!) and flip the bread slices over. Evenly spoon the garlic oil mixture over the cut sides of the bread so that everything is equally-distributed.
Better Than Dominos Garlic Bread
With the bread cut side up this time, cover the sheet tray with foil once more and put it back in the oven for another five minutes, just to ensure everything is thoroughly heated through and the flavours are homogenous. You can use this time to chop up a bit of parsley if you’d like.
If you want to make garlic bread without parsley, you can very much skip this step and still have an excellent final result!
Making homemade garlic bread without butter is super easy and the result is absolutely delicious. Whether you’re looking for a vegan option or forgot to pick up butter at the store, you may never go back to a butter-based garlic bread again!
