Related:<\/strong> Another great way to use stale bread is to make French Toast<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In a small bowl mix together the softened butter, parmesan cheese, chopped parsley and garlic powder. If your butter isn’t soft melt it in the microwave for 30 seconds or less. The goal being very soft butter but not melted into a liquid. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Cut the french loaf in half lengthwise, as if you were going to make a giant sandwich. I then like to cut off the ends and cut into individual pieces as I like more crispy edges on my garlic toast. But this isn’t necessary, you could leave the loaf in two large pieces. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Spread the garlic butter mixture evenly over the bread. Sprinkle salt and pepper over the top. Bake at 425\u00b0F for 8-10 minutes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/abeautifulmess.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/garlic-toast.jpg\")
