Equipment

  • Baking Sheet

Ingredients

  • 6 slices of baguette
  • 6 slices of Butterkäse cheese or other melty cheese
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • Handful of morel mushrooms halved
  • 5 cremini mushrooms quartered
  • 1 sprig of fresh thyme left whole
  • 1 clove of garlic minced
  • Sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  • Prepare the crostini by slicing a baguette into thin slices and placing it on a baking sheet. Place into the oven for 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
  • Add some cheese slices to the top of each crostini and bake for another 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted. Remove from oven.
  • Cook the mushrooms while the baguette slices are baking, heat the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced cremini and morel mushrooms with the full sprig of thyme to the HOT pan and let them sit for 2 minutes without stirring; toss and continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Add the minced garlic and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Remove from the heat. Season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste.
  • To serve, spoon the mushrooms evenly on top of each crostini then sprinkle with fresh parsley. Serve immediately. Enjoy.
