Featuring Noosa Black Garlic Butter
Crispy. Buttery. Irresistibly umami.
This Black Garlic Bread is a simple classic, elevated with rich, sweet, caramelised Noosa Black Garlic Butter.
Golden and crisp on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside - with that deep, savoury flavour that keeps you going back for “just one more piece”.
Add cheese if you like… or keep it pure and let the black garlic shine.
Recipe Details
Serves: 4–6
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 10–15 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 large baguette or sourdough loaf
- 100 g butter, softened
- 2–3 Noosa Black Garlic Cloves, mashed (or 1–2 tsp Caramelized Black Garlic Paste)
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped (personally I detest parsley - so I would use some chopped chives or basil here!)
- Pinch sea salt
Optional
- ½–1 cup mozzarella, grated
- ¼ cup parmesan, finely grated
Method
1. Make the black garlic butter
In a bowl, combine:
- softened butter
- mashed Noosa Black Garlic Cloves (or paste)
- parsley
- sea salt
Mix until smooth and evenly combined.
2. Prepare the bread
Slice the baguette in half lengthways (or into thick slices).
Spread generously with the black garlic butter, making sure to get right to the edges.
3. Add cheese (optional)
If using, sprinkle over:
- mozzarella for melt
- parmesan for a salty, golden finish
4. Bake
Preheat oven to 180°C.
Place bread on a tray and bake for 10–15 minutes, until:
- edges are golden and crisp
- butter is bubbling
- cheese (if using) is melted and lightly golden
5. Finish
Slice and serve immediately while warm.
Serve
Perfect as:
- a side to pasta or soup
- part of a grazing board
- or as a snack straight from the oven
Why Black Garlic Works Here
Classic garlic bread… but better:
- Black garlic → sweet, mellow, no harsh bite
- Butter → rich and indulgent
- Bread → crisp + soft contrast
The result is a deeper, more complex flavour — without the overpowering punch of raw garlic.
Pro Tip
For next-level flavour:
- add a drizzle of Black Garlic Extra Virgin Olive Oil before serving
- or finish with a touch of Black Garlic Salt
The Takeaway
Simple ingredients. Elevated flavour.
