Crispy Cheesy Toast

Inspired by Ace Bakery's Cheddar mini crisps and the need to do something useful with a dry baguette...came the creation of Crispy Cheesy Toast.  They are tasty and incredibly addictive, but also simple to make.  Good as a snack or at a party.  They don't last long at home, I can barely keep myself from devouring it all right out of the oven.

CRISPY CHEESY TOAST

approx prep time: 10min

approx cook time: 10min

INGREDIENTS:

Well Aged Cheddar (I prefer 5 year old Balderson cheddar, if you are using younger cheddar that is not a strong, you may need to add a bit of sea salt to the top.)

A baguette

Olive Oil
Sea salt (optional)

HOW TO MAKE IT:

1) Preheat Oven to 350 degrees

2) Slice old baguette into 1/4 inch slice toasts

3)  Grate a mound of cheddar

3) Brush both sides of the toast with olive oil and lay flat on a baking sheet

4) Sprinkle the toasts lightly with grated cheddar cheese, sprinkle sea salt if needed.

5) Bake for 10 minutes or until the edges of the toast is slightly brown
