Ingredients

  • 1 baguette, sliced into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 2 cups sliced mushrooms (cremini or button)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Arrange baguette slices on a baking sheet, drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil, and toast for 5–7 minutes until golden and crisp.
  2. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook mushrooms for 6–8 minutes until softened and lightly browned.
  3. Stir in garlic, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper; cook for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in Parmesan until the mushrooms are evenly coated.
  5. Spoon the mushroom mixture onto toasted baguette slices and top with mozzarella.
  6. Bake for 5 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve warm.

Notes

  • Swap mozzarella with provolone or fontina for different flavor.
  • Add a drizzle of balsamic glaze for extra richness.
  • Use mixed wild mushrooms for deeper flavor.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 2 days and reheat in the oven for best texture.
  • To make vegan, use dairy-free cheese alternatives.
  • For gluten-free, use a gluten-free loaf instead of baguette.
