Ingredients
- 1 baguette (sliced into ½-inch slices)
- cooking spray (or cooking oil of choice)
- ½ cup cheddar cheese
Buffalo Chicken Spread
- 2 cups cooked chicken (shredded, ex. rotisserie chicken)
- 8 ounces cream cheese (at room temperature, 1 brick, 250 grams)
- ½ cup ranch dressing (or blue cheese dressing)
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 green onions (thinly sliced)
- ¼ cup buffalo sauce (½ cup for an extra spicy recipe)
- ¼ cup mozzarella cheese (shredded)
- ¼ cup cheddar cheese (shredded)
Garnish
- 2 green onions (thinly sliced)
- ranch dressing (or blue cheese dressing)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F with racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven.
- Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or foil. Generously spray with cooking spray or, drizzle 1 tablespoon of cooking oil of choice on each tray and evenly spread over the tray. This will make the bottoms of the bread crispy when baking.
- Slice the baguette into thin slices, approximately ½ inch thick slices. Depending on the size of the baguette you should able to cut 24 slices (tip: trim the rounded end pieces off to be able to get a crostini from each end of the baguette).
- Evenly distribute the slices of baguette on the two baking sheets.
- In a large bowl combine all of the buffalo chicken spread ingredients. Stir until evenly combined (Tip: be sure the cream cheese is at room temperature so it is easier to stir. Leave the cream cheese on the counter while you prep all the ingredients, or microwave for 15 seconds).
- Use a spoon to evenly distribute the buffalo chicken spread over the crostini.
- Evenly distribute the ½ cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the tops of each crostini.
- Place the baking trays in the oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes (switching the trays from the upper and lower racks halfway through cooking), or until the cheese is melted and the bottoms of the crostini are crispy.
- Drizzle ranch dressing or blue cheese dressing over the crostini and sprinkle sliced green onions over the tops for serving. Serve warm and enjoy!
