    Tips for making the best air fryer garlic bread.

    Preheating your air fryer is the secret to making a good garlic bread. Doing this will ensure that your bread gets crisp on the edges as desired and that it does so evenly.

    More helpful tips for you.

    1. Using fresh garlic that is freshly minced is the best way to get the optimal garlic flavor.
    2. Allowing your butter to fully soften to room temperature will make it easier to combine and spread the ingredients over the bread effectively.
    3. Customize your garlic bread with additional toppings like red pepper flakes for a spicy kick or shredded mozzarella for a cheesier version.
    4. When placing your bread into your air fryer, leave room between the slices for the air to circulate around the bread while air frying. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to make this recipe in batches.
    5. For softer bread, you can air fry your bread for a shorter amount of time and for crisper bread you can leave it in the airfryer for up to a minute after turning the air fryer off.
    6. Garlic bread is best enjoyed hot and fresh out of the air fryer. For this reason it is best to serve it immediately.
