Ingredients
1french baguette
1tablespoonextra virgin olive oil
Instructions
Prep: Preheat oven to 475 degrees F. Slice 1 french baguette into 1/2 inch pieces (I like to cut it at a slight angle).
Olive Oil: Place on baking sheet in a single layer and brush each piece with 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil.
Bake: Place in oven, middle rack, and let bake until they start to turn golden brown; approx. 4-8 minutes of cook time (keep an eye on them - everyone's oven is a bit different). Option to put them under the broiler for a minute, if you prefer them more brown in color.
Servings: of course you can use this for more or less than 12 slices - however you may need to cook them in batches, depending on the size of your baking pan.
Storage: store in an airtight container on the counter top for 3-5 days.
