I prefer to make my own garlic bread in the oven from a whole loaf of Italian bread but there are times when its just not possible. I have bought and made Pepperidge Farm frozen garlic bread a number of times and found that cooking it in the oven on a cookie sheet with a wire rack under it yields the best taste. If you want to add extra cheese to it, let it cook about half way then add the cheese. If you add it while it is still frozen the cheese is going to develop a burnt taste, even more so if you put it under the broiler to increase the crunch of it. This is something that should be kept frozen until you are ready to make it; putting it in the refrigerator for a day or two can lead to it being soggy and not cooking properly. Most of the time when I make this it is when I can't find fresh Italian bread or I am only going to need a small amount of garlic bread. You can slice this in to smaller amounts but keep the unused portion in the freezer. This garlic bread is great for dipping in sauces as well as a side for a large salad or with a meal; I was worried about the sodium content of it but thankfully one serving only has 270 milligrams but keep in mind a serving is two and a half inches.

While I wish these came in a larger loaf, they are so good, I usually buy two. It is so convenient to take a package out of the freezer and pop it into the oven to have alongside dinner. There is no match on flavor. I can always count on Pepperidge Farm products to be tasty. It sure beats making it homemade by yourself at home.

I have tried a few different frozen garlic breads over the years. Pepperidge Farm Frozen Garlic Bread is not my favorite, but it will do in a pinch. The butter and garlic layer in the middle of the two slices seems to be too thick or something. It doesn't melt down into the bread very well. Or maybe the instructions need some adjusting to a higher temperature or longer time. The bread never toasts. It seems a bit on the soggy side...almost like it has been reheated in the microwave instead of being baked in the oven. The price wasn't too bad and I would buy it again if I didn't have other options that I know are tastier. The size is great for a family of four (big bread eaters) or more. Great to have on hand in the freezer for a quick pasta meal. It's easy to bake. You open up the package, split the pre-sliced loaf in half and bake on a cookie sheet for a few minutes. So easy that a young person could do it on their own.

I like the taste of the Pepperidge Farm Frozen Garlic Bread but have learned after making it for quite some time that I have to adjust the way I cook it. Instructions say to cook in the oven until the bread turns golden brown, but my bread never toasted up. The top layer of butter and garlic was hot but tasted undercooked because it was still soft. I decided to try a different method: I cooked the bread as directed then switched my oven to broiler for the last three minutes. This worked really well and the top and bottom of the bread was crispy and the butter and garlic was warm. My family really likes this bread and goes great with almost any meal. Very affordable and easy to keep stored until you need it. I like this brand and most of the other products that they make. I would recommend this to others as an addition to their dinners. My kids eat the leftover bread with lunch meat and love it.
