Servings: 30
Total Time: 20 minutes

INGREDIENTS

  • 1-2 baguettes, enough to get about 30-35 ¼th inch slices you can also buy pre-sliced if available

  • olive oil spray

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened not melted

  • 1 small lemon, juiced

  • 2 tbsp fresh dill, chopped

  • 1 fresh garlic clove, crushed

  • salt

  • freshly cracked black pepper

  • 8 oz cold smoked salmon

For garnish

  • capers

  • fresh dill

DIRECTIONS

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Cut the baguette into ¼th - ½ inch slices, you should get between 30 and 35 slices. Then arrange on a baking sheet.

Spray both sides with a little olive oil. Then bake at 350 degrees for about 9 minutes, flipping half way through, until golden and crisp. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.

In a medium sized mixing bowl add 8 oz of softened (not melted) cream cheese. Add in dill, lemon juice, crushed garlic and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix until well combined. If desired, spoon into a piping bag and set aside.

Once the crostini bread has cooled arrange the slices on a serving platter. Divide the salmon equally among the crostini, placing one slice on top of each.

Use the piping bag to pipe a small dollop of the cream cheese mixture on top of each piece of salmon.

Garnish each crostini with a few capers and a sprig of fresh dill. Serve and enjoy!
