Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 loaf French baguette
- 3 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 8 ounces Cream cheese
- 1 teaspoon Curry powder
- 1 cup Green olives (pitted and finely chopped)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the French baguette into 20 thin rounds, about 1/2 inch thick each.
Arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet and brush both sides lightly with olive oil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crisp. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, curry powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well incorporated.
Fold in the finely chopped green olives and half of the chopped parsley, reserving the rest for garnish.
Spread approximately 1 teaspoon of the curried olive mixture onto each toasted baguette slice.
Sprinkle the remaining parsley over the assembled canapés for a touch of color and freshness.
Arrange the canapés on a serving platter and serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving.
