Hard boil the eggs by placing them in a pot of boiling water and cooking for 10 minutes. Once done, transfer them to a bowl of cold water to cool.
Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the baguette into 1/2-inch thick rounds and arrange them on a baking sheet. Brush each piece lightly with olive oil.
Toast the bread slices in the preheated oven for 5-7 minutes until golden and crispy. Set aside to cool slightly.
Peel the boiled eggs and grate them using the fine side of a box grater into a bowl.
Finely chop the anchovy fillets and add them to the grated eggs.
Add the unsalted butter (softened), mayonnaise, a pinch of salt, and black pepper to the egg and anchovy mixture. Mix well until a creamy spread forms.
Finely chop the fresh parsley for garnish and set aside.
Spread a generous layer of the egg and anchovy mixture onto each toasted baguette round.
Garnish the canapés with a sprinkle of fresh parsley and serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
