Garlic Bread Sloppy Joes

Garlic Bread Sloppy Joes are a delicious twist on the classic sandwich, made with Italian bread topped with the best sloppy joe mixture and cheese. Then, they are baked in the oven until golden brown. Cut the bread into smaller pieces to serve as an appetizer. Or, keep the pieces in larger sections for a main course. Either way you cut it, literally, these are SO GOOD! Plus, these can also be made in an air fryer. You really can’t go wrong when serving a Sloppy Joe!

Ingredients & Substitutions
Bread: While Italian bread is a popular choice for garlic bread sloppy joes, there are other options you could use as well. Try this recipe with a French baguette, ciabatta, sourdough, or any of your favorites. The garlic butter and toppings will add flavor to any bread you choose!
Garlic Butter: Unsalted butter is mixed with garlic salt and then spread over the halves of the bread. If you don’t have garlic salt on hand or simply want a milder flavor, just use plain butter.
