Ingredients

  • ½ baguette sliced
  • 100 g soft goat cheese
  • 300 g mixed mushrooms sliced
  • 1 medium shallot sliced length-wise
  • 3 cloves garlic crushed
  • 5 sprigs thyme
  • 3 tablespoon olive oil divided
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°. Brush both sides of each baguette slice with olive oil. Place on a baking sheet and place in the oven for 7-8 minutes, flip and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until golden on each side.
  • Place a skillet on medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoon olive oil, whole thyme sprigs, and crushed garlic cloves. Once the oil begins to bubble around the garlic, add the shallots and cook for 2 minutes, until softened.
  • Add the mushrooms and stir to coat in the olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and a few cracks of pepper. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring often, until the liquid is released from the mushrooms. Lower the heat to medium-low and continue cooking the mushrooms for an addition 12-15 minutes, until all the liquid is reabsorbed and the mushrooms begin to caramelize. Remove the thyme sprigs and keep mushrooms on low until ready to serve.
  • To serve, spread about 1 tablespoon of goat cheese on a baguette slice, top with 2 tablespoon of mushrooms and sprinkle with fresh ground black pepper and a few thyme leaves.

Notes

These mushrooms would also make a great topping for pizza, mixed with butter for pasta, or in an omelet.
