Bread Cup Mushroom Croustades image

This is a very rich tasting and fancy appetizer that can be made in advance that I received in a cooking class. In addition, I have never had it served to me by anyone else before.

Time 50m

Yield 24 appetizers

Number Of Ingredients 12

24 slices pepperidge farm white bread
3 tablespoons minced shallots
1/4 cup butter
1/2 lb fresh mushrooms, finely chopped
2 tablespoons flour
1 cup heavy cream
1 1/2 tablespoons minced fresh chives
1 tablespoon minced parsley
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
minced parsley (optional)
grated parmesan cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • Bread Cup: Preheat oven to 400°F Cut a 2-3 inch round from each bread slice. Gently fit bread rounds into each mold of a mini-mufin pan to form a cup. Bake 10 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool and set aside.
  • Filling: In a heavy skillet, saute shallots in butter for 1 minute. Stir in mushrooms and simmer, uncovered until all liquid has evaporated; about 10 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and stir flour into mushrooms. Pour cream over and return to heat.
  • Stirring constantly, bring to boil and cook another minute or so while mixture becomes very thick. Remove from heat and stir in remaining ingredients.
  • Let cool, then cover and refrigerate until cool.
  • Bake: Preheat oven to 350°F Fill cups with mixture and sprinkle with minced parsley and parmesan cheese of desired. Bake 10 minutes on ungreased baking sheet.
  • ---------------------------------------------------------------
  • NOTE: Appetizers can be made in advance and then frozen for future use. Follow the Bread cup and Filling directions above. Freeze the filled cups in the mini-muffin pan. Once frozen, you can place them in plastic bags for easier storage. When you remove them from the freezer, allow to thaw completely before baking them.

These are a great way to use up leftover bread. I always have a few slices of bread that need to be used up, and these croustades are a perfect solution.

These were good, but not as good as I was hoping for. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

These were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more herbs and spices next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my croustades came out soggy. I'm going to have to try again.

I had some trouble getting the bread cups to hold their shape. Maybe I didn't roll them out thin enough?
