Description

Creamy Baked Spinach Artichoke Crostini are crunchy toasted baguette slices topped with a rich, cheesy spinach artichoke dip. Perfect for parties or appetizers.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 baguette, sliced into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup frozen spinach, thawed and drained
  • 1 cup canned artichoke hearts, chopped
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Place baguette slices on the baking sheet, brush lightly with olive oil, and toast in the oven for 5-7 minutes until lightly golden.
  3. In a bowl, combine cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, mozzarella, Parmesan, garlic, spinach, and artichokes. Mix until well blended. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Spread the spinach artichoke mixture generously on each toasted baguette slice.
  5. Return to the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, until the topping is hot and bubbly.
  6. Serve warm, optionally garnished with extra Parmesan or chopped parsley.

Notes

  • Use fresh spinach instead of frozen if preferred; just sauté and drain well.
  • These can be assembled ahead of time and baked just before serving.
  • Try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little heat.
