Cutting board
Bread knife
Sheet pan
Parchment paper
Pastry brush
- 1 thin baguette
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Flaky salt, for finishing - optional
Place an oven rack one level above the center position and preheat the oven to 450°F.
Line a sheet pan with parchment paper, making sure the paper does not hang over the edge of the pan.
Slice bread straight across - or on the bias, for larger pieces - about ⅓ to ½-inch thick.
Arrange the bread slices in a single, evenly spaced layer on the sheet pan.
Brush both sides of the bread with a thin, even coat of olive oil.
Bake for 5-7 minutes, or until the edges are brown and the centers are golden.
Let cool for about 10 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with a bit of flaky salt, if desired.
