**Garlic Baguette Chips: A Crispy, Savory Snack Made Easy**
Crispy, garlicky, and oh-so-addictive, garlic baguette chips are the perfect snack for any occasion. Whether you're looking for a quick appetizer, a side dish for your favorite soup or salad, or just a crunchy treat to munch on, these chips are sure to hit the spot. Made with just a few simple ingredients and ready in under 30 minutes, they're also incredibly easy to make.
This recipe article provides two variations of garlic baguette chips: a classic version and a cheesy version. The classic version is made with just four ingredients: baguette, garlic, olive oil, and salt. The cheesy version adds a layer of melted cheese for an extra gooey, flavorful bite. Both versions are equally delicious and sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
GARLIC CHIPS
Steps:
- Heat olive oil in a medium skillet over moderate heat. Add garlic slices and saute until lightly browned, about 12 minutes. Drain garlic on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt and serve.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Slice the baguette diagonally into 1/4-inch slices. You should have 20 to 25 slices. Place the slices in 1 layer on a baking sheet. Brush each slice with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Bake the toasts for 15 to 20 minutes or until they are crisp and browned. Serve at room temperature.
GARLIC BREAD
You may have once struggled with dry or greasy breads reeking of burned or raw garlic, but it's time to put that behind you. This is a versatile recipe, as readily made with thin baguettes, as it is with rustic sourdoughs and airy Italian loaves. Cutting the bread like a Hasselback potato keeps the butter from seeping out and allows the garlic to infuse the bread with its flavor without scorching. But, if it's an extra cheesy garlic bread you're looking for, slip a little mozzarella into each slit.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 400 degrees. In a small bowl, stir together the butter, garlic, Parmesan and parsley. Add the salt and generously season with pepper. Set aside while you cut the baguette.
- Cut deep slits into the baguette, 1-inch apart - don't cut all the way through the loaf - and place the baguette on a large piece of foil. Using a teaspoon or an offset spatula, generously spread the seasoned butter inside each slit. Make sure to reach the bottom of the slit; don't be shy here.
- Wrap the baguette in the foil, place on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the baguette from the oven and unwrap the top (leave the bread on the foil). If you're adding mozzarella, use the offset spatula or spoon to gently open each slit and tuck a piece of mozzarella in (it's O.K. if the cheese pops out from the top a little). Return bread to the oven and bake until crisp and golden on top, another 5 minutes. Slice with a serrated knife (or tear with your hands) and serve at once.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet with olive oil.
- Slice bagels into 1/8 inch thick rounds using a serrated knife. Arrange them in a single layer on the greased baking sheet. In a small bowl, stir together the olive oil, garlic, Italian seasoning, and Parmesan cheese. Use a spoon or pastry brush to apply the flavored olive oil to the bagel chips. If you start to run out of the mixture, you can add a little bit more oil without sacrificing any flavor. Season the chips lightly with salt and pepper.
- Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the chips are lightly browned. Remove from the oven and cool. The chips will become crispier as they cool.
