INGREDIENTS
 
  • 1 thin baguette
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

INSTRUCTIONS
  • 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.

  • 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.
