Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 loaf baguette
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 4 ounces smoked salmon
- 12 medium cooked shrimp
- 4 ounces lump crab meat
- 2 tablespoons capers
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the baguette into 12 thin rounds, about 1/2-inch thick each.
Brush both sides of the baguette slices with olive oil and arrange them on a baking sheet.
Bake in the oven for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy. Remove and let cool.
In a medium bowl, mix together the cream cheese, lemon juice, chopped dill, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
Using a butter knife or spoon, spread about 1 tablespoon of the herbed cream cheese mixture onto each crostini.
Top 4 of the crostini with a small slice of smoked salmon, folding it gently for presentation.
Top another 4 crostini with cooked shrimp, ensuring they sit securely on the cream cheese.
For the final 4 crostini, add a generous spoonful of lump crab meat.
Garnish the smoked salmon hors d'oeuvres with capers, the shrimp hors d'oeuvres with a small sprig of parsley, and the crab meat hors d'oeuvres with an extra sprinkle of dill.
Arrange all the crostini on a serving platter and serve immediately. Enjoy!
