Ingredients

  • 1 baguette, sliced into ½-inch rounds

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (plus more for brushing)

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter

  • 12 ounces mixed mushrooms (cremini, button, or shiitake), sliced

  • 2 garlic cloves, minced

  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves

  • Remove from heat and stir in chopped parsley.

  • Spoon warm mushroom mixture over toasted bread slices.

Notes

Avoid overcrowding the pan to prevent mushrooms from becoming watery.A splash of balsamic vinegar adds depth and brightness.Substitute rosemary for thyme for a different herb profile.Drizzle with truffle oil for a gourmet touch.Assemble just before serving to keep bread crisp.
