For a crispier texture, you can broil the loaves for the last 2-3 minutes of baking, watching closely to prevent burning.

Leftover honey garlic sauce can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Reheat gently before serving.

To make this recipe gluten-free, ensure you use certified gluten-free soy sauce and bread crumbs.
