Ingredients

• 1 loaf baguette
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 250 grams button mushrooms
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 teaspoon thyme
• 75 grams cream cheese
• 1 tablespoon parsley
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Slice the baguette into 1/2-inch thick rounds and brush each side lightly with olive oil.

Step 3

Arrange the bread slices on a baking sheet and toast in the oven for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crisp. Remove from the oven and set aside.

Step 4

While the bread is toasting, clean and finely chop the button mushrooms.

Step 5

In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the chopped mushrooms and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and their liquid has mostly evaporated.

Step 6

Finely mince the garlic cloves and add them to the skillet along with the thyme. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 7

Stir in the cream cheese, letting it melt and incorporate into the mushroom mixture. Season with salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste.

Step 8

Finely chop the parsley and stir it into the mushroom topping, reserving a small amount for garnish.

Step 9

Spoon a generous amount of the mushroom mixture onto each toasted baguette slice.

Step 10

Garnish with a sprinkle of parsley, then serve immediately while warm.
