I most always make this with my spaghetti sauce, but it is great to serve with really any meal. They can be partially baked ahead of time and then just heated in the oven before your meal.

Tips:

  • Choose the right bread: A good quality baguette or ciabatta bread is essential for making the best crostini. The bread should be firm enough to hold up to the toppings, but not too hard.
  • Slice the bread evenly: To ensure that the crostini cook evenly, it is important to slice the bread into even slices. This will help to prevent some pieces from being overcooked while others are still undercooked.
  • Brush the bread with olive oil: Before baking the crostini, brush them with olive oil. This will help to keep them from drying out and will also help the toppings to adhere to the bread.
  • Use a variety of toppings: There are endless possibilities when it comes to toppings for crostini. Some popular options include garlic butter, parmesan cheese, fresh herbs, and roasted vegetables.
  • Bake the crostini until they are golden brown: The crostini should be baked until they are golden brown and crispy. This will usually take about 10-15 minutes.

Conclusion:

Garlic butter parmesan crostini are a delicious and easy appetizer that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for parties, potlucks, or simply as a snack. With a few simple ingredients, you can make these tasty treats in just a few minutes. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy appetizer, give garlic butter parmesan crostini a try.
