Warm Egg and Cheese Crostini

These Egg and Cheese Crostini are sooo good. I bet you can’t eat just one.
The cheese and eggs provide a hearty combination and the garlic adds so much flavor to the mixture.
The buttered baguette tastes especially good due to the warm butter that seeps from the top.
These are perfect for brunch or even as a snack for any time of the day!

This recipe comes from my friends that I used to visit a lot when I first came to Germany. These Crostinis always remind me of them when I make them.

Egg and Cheese Crostini Instructions

To start off, preheat your oven so that it is ready to go when you are done preparing the Crostinis.

Using the fine side of a box grater (but not the star grater side), grate the cheese and the peeled, hard-boiled eggs and set aside in a small bowl. (You can see the cheese underneath the grated egg on the picture on the right, right??? lol)

Either grate the garlic or use a garlic press to mince the garlic clove. Add to the eggs and cheese.

Add a tablespoon of mayo and a pinch of salt to the egg and cheese mixture and mix until everything is well-combined.

Using a serrated knife and a cutting board, cut the baguette into slices. They shouldn’t be too thin, but also not too thick. Also, don’t cut the baguette at an angle as that will give you longer pieces of toast. For this recipe it is better to have smaller, though not quite “bite-sized” pieces. Butter each slice with butter and place on a baking sheet. Set aside.

(Side note about the knife: I absolutely love my little, red, serrated knife I link to above. I got mine in Germany, but I am pretty sure it’s the same one. Both have the Victorinox wording on it. Mine was just sold through a third party vendor and has their logo on it, as well).

Spread the egg and cheese mixture evenly onto the cut and buttered baguette slices and place them back on the baking sheet.

Bake for 10 minutes or until the slices are golden and the edges are crispy.

Serve warm. Just look at these!!! Don’t they just look amazing!

How to Store Egg and Cheese Crostini

If you have any leftover egg and cheese crostini, store them in an air tight container in the fridge. Let them come to room temperature to enjoy. You can also throw them in a warm oven to warm up before eating, if you don’t like to eat them cold.
