What You’ll Need to Garlic Bread in the Air Fryer
- Softened butter — I use unsalted butter
- Garlic
- Parmesan cheese
- Dried parsley
- Baguette — sliced to your choice of thickness. You can also use ciabatta bread if you’d like.
How to Make Air Fryer Garlic Bread
- Mix together the softened butter, minced garlic, parmesan cheese, and dried parsley.
- Spread the mixture onto sliced baguettes or bread of your choice.
- Place the garlic bread into your air fryer basket in a single layer.
- Air fry at 350F for 5 minutes.
Tips
- Feel free to adjust the time to how crispy you like your bread. H likes the garlic bread closer to 3-4 minutes whereas I prefer 5 minutes in the air fryer.
- This recipe was tested in the Philips XXL air fryer which doesn’t require preheating. Preheat if your air fryer requires it.
- Avoid stacking these garlic breads in the air fryer as you want them to be evenly toasted.
- These air fryer garlic bread goes well with my Instant Pot Meatballs.
Make Ahead Tips
- Meal prep: store leftover garlic bread in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the fridge. When you reheat it, don’t microwave it for more than 10 seconds. You can also quickly air fryer or bake the garlic bread until it has warmed through. Be careful not to over toast it.
- Prepare for the freezer: once you’ve spread the garlic butter mix onto the bread, freeze them in a single layer. Once frozen, transfer them into an airtight container before storing them in the freezer. When you’re ready to enjoy, air fryer them straight from frozen at 340F for 5-7 minutes.

Way better than I expected. I guess I underestimated the airfryer compared to the broiler.
