Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the baguette into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Arrange the slices on a baking sheet in a single layer.
Brush both sides of the baguette slices with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Bake for 6-8 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crisp.
While the bread is toasting, clean the mushrooms with a damp cloth and slice them thinly.
Mince the garlic cloves and set them aside.
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release their liquid and begin to brown.
Stir in the minced garlic and fresh thyme, cooking for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Deglaze the skillet with white wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Cook for 2-3 minutes, allowing the wine to reduce.
Season the mushrooms with salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste.
Remove the toasted baguette slices from the oven and arrange them on a serving platter.
Top each slice with a generous spoonful of the warm mushroom mixture.
Optional: Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese on top for added flavor, then garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
Serve immediately and enjoy your warm mushroom crostini!
