Directions

1. Step 1 Put the butter in a bowl, add the garlic and mix well. Spoon the butter out onto a sheet of cling film and roll up to make a sausage-shaped log. Chill for 10 mins.
2. Step 2 Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Slice the baguette into about 12 slices but not all the way through, leaving the base intact to hold it together.
3. Step 3 Remove the cling film from the butter and thinly slice on a chopping board. Press each butter slice between the slices of bread.
4. Step 4 Wrap the baguette in foil, place on a tray and bake for 5-6 mins, then peel back the foil. Cook for a further 4-5 mins to crisp up.
