Steps:
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. Place the baguette slices on a baking sheet and brush both sides of the bread with the oil.
- Bake until golden brown, 4-5 minutes per side. Top as desired. The crostini can be toasted up to 3 days in advance. Keep at room temperature using an airtight container.
- Using one batch of this crostini, you can make the following.
- For Artichoke and Olive Crostini, toss 1 (14 oz.) can artichoke hearts (rinsed and chopped) with 1/4 cup chopped kalamata olives, 3 T. olive oil, and 1 T. chopped flat-leaf parsley; season with salt and pepper. Dividing evenly, top 24 crostini with the artichoke mixture, then shaved parmesan.
- For Smoked Salmon Crostini, combine 4 oz. cream cheese, 1 T. chopped dill, and 1 T. prepared horseradish; season with salt and pepper. Dividing evenly, spread the cream cheese mixture on 24 crostini. Top with 4 oz. smoked salmon and sprinkle with more dill.
- For Mushroom and Herb Crostini, cook 12 oz. thinly sliced assorted mushrooms in olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until tender, 4-5 minutes. Add 1/2 cup white wine and simmer until evaporated, 3-4 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Dividing evenly, top 24 crostini with the mushrooms and sprinkle with chopped chives.
- For Ricotta and Roasted Tomato Crostini, on a rimmed baking sheet, toss 4 cups grape tomatoes with 3 T. olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Roast at 400 degrees until beginning to burst, 20-25 minutes. Dividing evenly, spread 1 cup ricotta on 24 crostini. Top with the tomatoes and sprinkle with thyme.
- For Blue Cheese and Fig Crostini, dividing evenly, spread 1/4 cup fig chutney on 24 crostini. Top with 4 oz. thinly sliced blue cheese.
- For Peppered Roast Beef, combine 1 T. horseradish with 1/4 cup sour cream. Place a dollop on each crostini, topping with 4 oz. thinly sliced roast beef. Sprinkle freshly cracked pepper over each crostini.
- For Caesar Salad, combine 2 cups finely chopped romaine lettuce with 2 T. Caesar salad dressing. Spoon mixture onto crostini and sprinkle with freshly grated parmesan cheese.

- Preheat the oven (or a gas grill*) to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy clean-up, if desired. If your baking sheet is smaller than mine, you may need to make the toast in two batches.
- Slice your baguette on the diagonal into pieces no wider than ½-inch. I can usually fit 20 to 24 slices on my large baking sheet; you might have some bread left over. Lightly brush both sides of each slice with olive oil (this will require about 2 to 3 tablespoons oil).
- Place the slices in a single layer on your prepared baking sheet and bake them on the middle rack for 6 to 9 minutes, until they’re crisp and nicely golden on top. Sprinkle the toasts lightly with salt. Transfer the toasts to a serving platter, if desired, and use as desired.

- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Slice the baguette in 1/4 to 1/2 inch slices, either on the bias (diagonal for more surface area) or perpendicular to the loaf of bread (straight across).
- Spread the baguette slices on a baking sheet. My lazy method: drizzle one side of the slices with olive oil (don’t drench them, dry areas are ok). Turn the slices over, pressing them around on the pan in the olive oil to spread the olive oil and coat the slices. Flip and do the same to both sides. Alternatively, you can brush each side of the bread with olive oil. Sprinkle the slices with salt and pepper.
- Bake the slices for 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on them so they don't burn, the thinner they are, the less time they will need.
