Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 loaf French baguette or crusty bread
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves
- 1 large Egg yolk
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 cup Olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.125 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cut the baguette or crusty bread diagonally into 1-inch slices and arrange them in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Toast the bread in the oven for 7-10 minutes, or until crispy and slightly golden. Remove and set aside to cool.
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves. Place them in a mixing bowl.
Add the egg yolk, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard to the bowl with the garlic. Whisk together until smooth.
Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while whisking continuously, allowing the mixture to emulsify and thicken into a creamy aioli. Season with salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste.
Spread a generous amount of aioli onto each slice of toasted bread.
Optional: Garnish with a sprinkle of freshly chopped parsley for an added burst of flavor and color.
Serve immediately as an appetizer or side dish, and enjoy!
