Ingredients

1 French baguette, cut into diagonal 1/2 inch slices
0.25 cup olive oil
0.25 cup butter or margarine
2 cloves garlic, minced
salt and pepper to taste
0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

Preheat your broiler to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
In a small saucepan, melt together olive oil, butter, and garlic over medium heat. Cook until the butter is melted and the mixture begins to bubble gently. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove the saucepan from the heat.
Dip each bread slice into the garlic mixture, ensuring both sides are well coated. Spread Parmesan cheese on a plate. Press one side of each bread piece into the cheese, then arrange them cheese side up on a baking sheet.
Broil on the middle rack of the preheated oven for approximately 8 minutes, or until the crostini turns a beautiful golden brown.
