Crusty Lemon Bread


Prep and cook time: 10 minutes

1 baguette
3 tablespoons butter, room temperature
1 tablespoon zest of lemon
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt

Preheat broiler.

[1] Slice baguette vertically in half. In a small bowl, mix together butter, zest and salt. Brush butter mixture on cut sides of bread and place on a baking sheet. Broil until hot, about 5-10 minutes.

Very, very quick to do - especially since I bought a pre-sliced baguette.
(An extra 60 cents well spent.)
I melted the butter for about 15 seconds in the microwave because it was easier to brush on melted than just at room temperature.
If you like lemon, you will love this bread!
