Ingredients
- 1 loaf baguette
- ½ cup chocolate spread
- ½ cup mixed nuts
- ¼ cup coconut flakes
Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the baguette into 1/2-inch thick rounds and arrange them on a baking sheet.
- 2
Toast the bread in the oven for 5-7 minutes, until the edges are golden and the bread feels crisp but still slightly soft in the center.
- 3
Spread about 1 tablespoon of chocolate spread onto each toasted crostini while they are still warm, so it melts slightly.
- 4
Roughly chop the mixed nuts into small pieces. Sprinkle about 1 tablespoon of chopped nuts over each crostini, pressing gently so they stick.
- 5
Sprinkle a pinch of coconut flakes over each crostini. Serve immediately, while the bread is still crisp and the chocolate is soft.
- 6
If you like, add a pinch of sea salt or a drizzle of honey on top for extra flavor.
