Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the baguette on the sheet and slice lengthwise into 1/2-inch thick slices, leaving the bottom intact to hold the bread together.
Step 2: Melt 3 tbsp unsalted butter in a small saucepan over medium heat, then add 2 minced garlic cloves and cook for 1 minute until fragrant but not browned. Stir in 1 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary, 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley, and 1/4 tsp coarse sea salt.
Step 3: Brush the herb butter mixture evenly over each slice of baguette, then bake for 12-15 minutes until the edges are golden and crispy, with the butter bubbling gently.
