Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Slice the baguette into 1/2-inch thick slices at an angle to create about 12-14 pieces.
Lay the bread slices on a baking sheet and lightly brush each side with 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
Bake the bread slices in the preheated oven for 5-7 minutes until lightly golden and crisp. Remove and set aside.
Finely mince the garlic cloves and set aside.
Clean and finely chop the mushrooms into small pieces.
Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the chopped mushrooms, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are soft and their liquid has evaporated.
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the chopped fresh parsley.
Top each toasted baguette slice with a spoonful of the mushroom mixture.
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on top of each slice.
Turn on your oven’s broiler setting and place the topped bruschetta back in the oven for 2-3 minutes, or until the mozzarella is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and drizzle each bruschetta with balsamic glaze for a touch of sweetness.
Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Mushroom Mozzarella Bruschetta!
