Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Clean the mushrooms and finely chop them into small pieces.
Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat and add the chopped mushrooms. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until they release their moisture and start to brown.
Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the mushrooms. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Remove the skillet from heat.
Chop the fresh parsley and stir it into the mushroom mixture along with the salt and black pepper.
Cut the French baguette into slices about 1 inch thick. Arrange the slices on a baking sheet and lightly brush each with olive oil.
Evenly distribute the mushroom mixture on top of each baguette slice.
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the mushroom mixture on each slice.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbling.
Garnish with additional parsley if desired, and serve warm.
