Crostini literally means ‘little crusts’ in Italian . These dainty-looking appetizers consist of crisped bread with interesting toppings, in this case a creamy and cheesy mixture of mushrooms, olives and onions perked up with pepper and mustard paste.


The Mushroom Olive Crostini is an all-rounder, with an irresistible appearance, peppy flavour and inviting aroma too. Just make sure the crostini is served as soon as it is prepared.


This bite size appetizer is perfect for a Cocktail Party .

  1. Heat the butter in a pan, add the onion and green chilli and sauté till the onion is translucent.

  3. Arrange the buttered bread circles on a baking tray and bake in a pre-heated oven at 180°c (360°f) for 2 to 3 minutes.

Nice crunchy toast with an awesome filling of mushrooms and olive. Great snack and i used whole wheat bread to make it healthier.
