Here’s my secret to a Happy Mom and Happy Kid recipe. Every weekend I run out of ideas as to, what to cook for the breakfast ? The menu should be steady on two grounds. First, it should be fast to cook and clean. Second, yet the table should be full of healthy and inviting food. Though our staple weekend breakfast/brunch is of paranthas (stuffed indian flatbread), this time I thought of taking a break from our traditional menu and had made assortment of topped Crostini. In no time, my b’fast table was full of wonderful and Nutritious varieties to nibble.

- Total Time: 30 minutes
- Yield: 4-6 servings 1x
Description
Create a delightful breakfast crostini party with assorted toppings like Nutella, cream cheese, and fresh veggies or fruits, perfect for a fun and nutritious start to the day.
Ingredients
- 1 baguette, sliced 1/4 inch thick
- 1/2 cup olive oil

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Arrange the baguette slices on two large baking sheets.
- Brush both sides of each slice with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 15 to 20 minutes, rotating the sheets halfway through the baking time.
- Once the crostini are baked and slightly cooled, top them with your choice of spreads: Nutella, butter, cream cheese, Hidden Valley Ranch dressing, or ricotta cheese.

Notes
Experiment with different spreads and toppings to find your favorite combinations. These crostini are best served fresh, but you can prepare the toppings in advance. Store any leftover crostini in an airtight container for up to 2 days, and reheat in the oven to crisp them up before serving.

I often do a little ricotta with some blueberries, a drizzle of honey and black pepper. Alternatively peanut butter and chopped berries.
I love this idea!
