Recipe Notes

• Sourdough or another firm bread could be substituted for the French baguette. Or use regular white bread!

• You can reduce the amount of butter in this recipe, if desired. You could also use olive oil instead. 
• If you don't have fresh herbs, you can substitute dried herbs.

• For easier cleanup, line the baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.

• For even more freshness and color, sprinkle the bread with more fresh herbs before serving.

• Store any leftover bread in a food storage bag or airtight container.

Here's how to make it:

1. Put the butter, garlic and herbs into a blender or food processor. Pulse until well combined. 
2. Lay the bread slices on a baking sheet. Spread the butter on the top of each slice.
