How to Make Mushroom On Italian Bread Appetizer

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 pound of sliced cremini mushrooms and 2 cloves of minced garlic. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until mushrooms are softened and lightly browned.
  2. Pour in 1/2 cup of heavy cream and 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese. Stir constantly until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency (about 2-3 minutes). Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Preheat your oven's broiler. Slice a baguette or crusty Italian loaf into 1-inch thick slices. Arrange the bread slices on a baking sheet.
  4. Broil the bread slices for 1-2 minutes per side, or until lightly toasted and golden brown. Alternatively, toast in a toaster oven or pan-fry until golden brown.
  5. While the bread is toasting, rub each slice with a cut garlic clove.
  6. Spoon the creamy mushroom sauce generously over the toasted bread slices. Serve immediately and enjoy!
