Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 loaf baguette
- 1 can (14 oz) artichoke hearts (canned, drained)
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
- 0.25 cup mayonnaise
- 1 clove garlic
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the baguette diagonally into 1/2-inch thick slices. Arrange them on a baking sheet.
Brush each slice lightly with olive oil on both sides. Bake in the preheated oven for 7-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crisp.
While the crostini bakes, prepare the artichoke topping. Chop the canned artichoke hearts into small pieces and transfer them to a mixing bowl.
Grate the Parmesan cheese and mince the garlic. Add both to the bowl with the artichokes.
Stir in mayonnaise, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until fully combined.
Once the crostini have cooled slightly, spoon a generous amount of the artichoke mixture onto each slice.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Light Tasty Artichoke Crostini!
