  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Wrap garlic bread in foil.

While this is not the best method around, reheating garlic bread should be a breeze on the stove top. It will be a bit quicker than using the stove, so that is a big positive; especially if you are super hungry.

Steps:

  1. Wrap garlic bread in foil.
  2. Place in a pan or skillet and turn the heat on low.
  3. Cover the pan and allow the bread to warm up. This should take a couple of minutes (depending on your stove)
  4. Once the bread is heated to your desired temperature, take out and eat.

Can You Reheat Garlic Bread in the Microwave?



The microwave is not the ideal method to go about reheating garlic bread. If you must use it, please be aware that it will not have it warm and crispy, as the microwave heats different from the oven.

If the microwave must be used, make sure that the garlic bread is not left in too long, as it will eventually turn soggy and mushy.

Steps

  1. Place the garlic bread in a microwave safe plate.
  2. Microwave for about 5-10 seconds, just enough to warm up the bread.
  3. Once heated, remove from the microwave and enjoy.
