Olive Tapenade Goat Cheese Crostini
These easy, tasty Olive Tapenade Goat Cheese Crostini are great as a party food, a snack, or a satisfying vegetarian lunch option!
Ingredients
- 5 oz French bread baguette, sliced diagonally into ten ½ oz slices (about ½” thick)
- 18 medium-sized black olives
- 16 green Manzanilla olives, (the ones that come in a jar with pimientos stuffed inside)
- 1 garlic clove
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon mustard
- 3 oz goat cheese
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 400. Place the baguette slices on a foil lined baking sheet and spray the tops with cooking spray. Flip the slices over and spray the other side as well. Place the baguette slices in the oven for 10-12 minutes until the edges are golden.* Allow them to cool for a few minutes until they’re easy to handle.
- Once the bread is in the oven, place both types of olives along with the garlic clove, olive oil, lemon juice, and mustard into a food processor and turn it on or pulse a few times until the ingredients are finely chopped and well combined.
- When the bread is ready, spread each toasted baguette slice with goat cheese, dividing it evenly amongst the bread. Top each piece with a tablespoon of the olive tapenade and serve.*If you aren’t planning to use the whole batch of crostini at once, you can either make all the baguette slices and use them as needed for a few days (store in a sealed Ziploc bag) or you can just make the toasted baguette slices as needed. I like making all of them at once because then they’re ready when I want to eat them and building my snack only takes a minute or two.
