Effortless Six-Section Garlic Bread Made with Morning Buns
Here’s a simple recipe to make delicious six-section garlic bread using frozen morning buns and your air fryer. Enjoy the delightful combination of a crispy exterior and a moist, flavorful interior!
Ingredients- 10 Morning Buns
- 100g Cream Cheese
- 15g Sugar
- 150g Unsalted Butter
- 40g Minced Garlic (approx. 3-4 Tbsp)
- 20g Honey (approx. 1.5 Tbsp)
- 20g Mayonnaise (approx. 1.5 Tbsp)
- 1 Egg
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s prepare the creamy filling for the inside of the garlic bread. Ensure your cream cheese (100g) is slightly softened at room temperature. Mix it well with 15g of sugar using a whisk or spatula until smooth and creamy. It’s really that simple!
Step 2
Transfer the prepared cream cheese filling into a zip-top bag and refrigerate it for a short while. This will make it easier to pipe later by simply snipping off a corner of the bag.
Step 3
Now, let’s make the garlic sauce that will give our bread its signature flavor. Melt 150g of unsalted butter in the microwave for about 30 seconds to 1 minute until completely liquid. Add 40g of minced garlic (about 3-4 tablespoons) to the warm melted butter and stir until well combined, ensuring there are no clumps.
Step 4
It’s time to enhance the flavor profile of the garlic sauce. Prepare 20g of honey (about 1.5 tablespoons) and 20g of mayonnaise (about 1.5 tablespoons).
Step 5
Add the egg to the butter and garlic mixture you prepared earlier. Then, incorporate the honey and mayonnaise. Whisk or stir with a spatula until all ingredients are thoroughly combined, creating a rich and moist garlic sauce.
Step 6
Now, let’s get ready to cut the buns. Prepare your 10 morning buns. Using a serrated knife, carefully cut each bun into six sections, almost all the way through but leaving the bottom intact. If your buns are smaller or a bit misshapen, cutting them into four sections is also perfectly fine. Be gentle to avoid crumbling the bread.
Step 7
It’s time to fill the bread with our delicious cream cheese mixture. Gently open each of the six sections of the morning buns and generously pipe or spoon in the cream cheese filling. Next, dip the entire bun, top and sides, into the prepared garlic sauce, ensuring it’s fully coated. Think of it as dressing the bread in a delicious garlic bath.
Step 8
We’ll now use the air fryer to achieve a perfectly golden-brown finish. Arrange the garlic-sauce-coated buns in the air fryer basket. Cook at 160°C (320°F) for approximately 10-12 minutes. Keep an eye on them and adjust the time as needed to achieve your desired level of crispiness.
Step 9
Repeat the baking process if necessary to cook all the buns, resulting in beautifully golden six-section garlic bread. For an extra touch, especially if serving to children or as a gift, you can mix finely chopped onions or bacon into the cream cheese filling before baking for a richer flavor experience.
Step 10
Voilà! With just a few simple ingredients, you’ve created fantastic six-section garlic bread. Even without parsley, the buns will achieve a lovely golden hue as they bake, mimicking the look of parsley. This makes for a wonderful treat that the whole family will adore!
