Delicious appetizer that will be a big hit when you serve it. My girlfriend made these years ago and gave me the recipe. I have made these many times over the years and everyone raves about them.

Time 1h

Yield 12-18 Croustades, 12-18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

12 -18 slices white bread
1/4 cup butter (not margarine)
1/2 cup finely chopped green onion
1 cup finely chopped mushroom
2 tablespoons flour
1 cup half-and-half cream
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon parsley, chopped or 1 1/2 teaspoons dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice

Steps:

  • For Croustade:
  • Use a rolling pin to flatten each bread slice. Cut 3" (18 small) or 4" (12 large) rounds and gently fit into small or large muffin tins.
  • Bake for 10 - 15 minutes at 425 or until golden and crisp. Cool on wire racks.
  • Filling:.
  • Melt butter in a large skillet and saute green onions for several minutes without browning.
  • Stir in the mushrooms and mix well. Cook 10 - 15 minutes, stirring occasionally until moisture has evaporated.
  • Remove from heat, sprinkle with flour and stir to coat the mushrooms.
  • Gradually add the cream and return to heat.
  • Bring to a boil, stirring constantly and then reduce heat and simmer for a few minutes until thick.
  • Stir in all the other ingredients.
  • Transfer filling to a bowl, cover it and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • To Serve:.
  • Place croustade on cookie sheet and fill each croustade with mushroom filling so that it is slightly mounded.
  • Sprinkle lightly with parmesan cheese and dot with butter.
  • Bake at 350 for 10 minutes and then turn to broil and brown the tops lightly.
  • Serve hot.

I had trouble getting the pastry to puff up properly.

These were a bit too salty for my taste, but otherwise they were delicious.

I'm not a huge fan of mushrooms, but I really enjoyed these croustades. The cheese and pastry balanced out the flavor of the mushrooms perfectly.

These mushroom croustades were a hit at my dinner party! The combination of mushrooms, cheese, and flaky pastry was simply divine. I especially loved the crispy edges of the croustades.
