Different brands of air fryers behave differently.
Keep a close watch on your garlic bread for the first couple of times you make it until you know exactly how long it takes for your brand.
Bake the garlic bread in the oven for 10 - 15 minutes at 375F if you prefer not to use an air fryer.
If you like a soft garlic bread recipe check it after about 2-3 minutes in the air fryer.
Make sure the butter is at room temperature but not melting before mixing in the other ingredients - especially if you're doing it by hand.
You may need to adjust cooking time if you cut slices thicker or thinner than I do.
No fresh garlic? Use garlic powder to taste.
