Recipe information
Yield
makes 24 slices
Ingredients
1 baguette, sliced 1/2 inch thick on a slight diagonal
Extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Step 2
Brush the bread on both sides with olive oil and arrange side by side on a baking sheet; season lightly with salt and pepper. Bake until light brown and crisp, about 10 minutes. Flip the slices over or rotate the pan if some are cooking faster than others. Let cool completely. Alternatively, you can brown the bread on a hot grill or with a panini press, which will impart a light smoky flavor.
