How to Make Gourmet Cheesy Mushroom and Garlic Toasts

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • In a skillet, heat olive oil and add minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant (about 1-2 minutes).
  • Add mushrooms, thyme, salt, and pepper; cook until the mushrooms are tender and moisture has evaporated (roughly 5-7 minutes).
  • Arrange bread slices on a baking sheet. Lightly toast in the oven for 2-3 minutes.
  • Distribute the sautéed mushroom mixture on the prepared bread slices and top with mozzarella cheese.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
  • Remove the toasts from the oven and enjoy warm as an appetizer, light lunch, or side dish.

Notes

Sprinkle fresh herbs or balsamic glaze for extra flavor and sophistication.
