Air Fryer Frozen Texas Toast Garlic Bread

Ingredients:

Instructions:

Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for about 2-3 minutes.
Prepare the Bread: Lay out the frozen Texas toast garlic bread slices on a clean surface. If desired, lightly brush each side of the bread with olive oil or use a cooking spray. This step helps enhance the crispiness.
Arrange in the Air Fryer: Place the prepared bread slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Make sure not to overcrowd the basket, as this can affect the bread’s crispiness.
Cooking Time: Cook the frozen garlic bread in the air fryer at 350°F (175°C) for 4-5 minutes. Keep an eye on them as cooking times can vary based on the air fryer model and the thickness of the bread.
Flip the Bread (Optional): About halfway through the cooking time, you can flip the bread slices using tongs to ensure even crisping on both sides.
Add Toppings (Optional): If you like, you can sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the bread during the last minute of cooking to create a cheesy crust. You can also add chopped fresh parsley for added flavor and color.
Check for Crispiness: Open the air fryer and check the bread for your desired level of crispiness. If you prefer it more crispy, you can cook it for an additional minute or so.
Serve: Once the garlic bread is crispy and golden brown, carefully remove it from the air fryer basket. Serve it immediately while it’s still warm.

Notes:

Cooking Time Variations: Cooking times may vary based on the thickness of the bread, the specific air fryer model you’re using, and your desired level of crispiness. Adjust the cooking time accordingly.
Olive Oil or Cooking Spray: Adding a light layer of olive oil or using a cooking spray helps the bread achieve a crispier texture. It’s optional, so you can skip it if you prefer a lighter option.
Toppings: Adding grated Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley is optional but can enhance the flavor and presentation of the garlic bread.
Single Layer: Make sure not to overcrowd the air fryer basket. If you’re making multiple slices, cook them in batches to ensure they crisp up evenly.
Preheating: Preheating the air fryer is important to ensure even cooking and crispiness. If your air fryer has a preheat function, use it.
Monitoring: Keep an eye on the bread during the cooking process to avoid overcooking. It’s easy to open the air fryer and check on the progress without disrupting the cooking cycle.
