Crostini

These crisp toasted bread rounds are an easy recipe to keep on hand for appetizers, cheese boards, and more. Homemade crostini are quick to make (and a great way to use up a loaf of day-old bread!)

Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 baguette fresh or day-old, or other long, thin, crusty bread
  • 1/2 cup olive oil (more or less, depending on how long the baguette is)
  • sea salt or kosher or fine-flaked
  • black pepper freshly-ground

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Slice baguette into 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick slices. You can either slice them as rounds or on the diagonal.
  2. Arrange bread slices in a single layer on a baking sheet. Brush both sides with olive oil. Lightly season one side with salt and pepper.
  3. Bake 6-8 minutes, flipping once, until bread is crisp and lightly-toasted.* Serve warm or at room temperature with your favorite crostini toppings.

Notes

  • *Baking time will vary based on the type of bread you've used, how thick you've sliced it, its moisture content, and density. In general, most will take between 6 and 8 minutes. Keep a close eye on the crostini as they bake so they don't burn.
  • See the FAQ's above for seasoning variations.
