How to Make Easy Spicy Parmesan Toasts

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Line one or two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  3. Slice a day-old French baguette into 1/4-inch thick slices and arrange them in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets.
  4. Drizzle one side of each baguette slice with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle lightly with salt.
  5. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until lightly golden.
  6. In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese with 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper (or more, to taste).
  7. Remove the toasts from the oven and sprinkle evenly with the Parmesan-cayenne mixture.
  8. Return to the oven and bake for another 6-8 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and golden brown.
  9. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
