Ingredients

1 baguette thinly sliced on a bias about 1 inch thick
2 tablespoons olive oil plus more for brushing
2 lbs assorted mushrooms, sliced Such as crimini, oyster, shiitake, etc.
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves chopped, plus more for garnish
salt and pepper
8 ounces fresh goat cheese softened
Truffled honey or wildflower honey for drizzling

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Brush baguette slices with olive oil, then arrange on a sheet pan in a single layer. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until crisp and golden.
Toss mushrooms on a sheet pan with 2 tablespoons olive oil, thyme, salt, then spread them out in an even layer.
Bake until browned and caramelized, about 25 minutes. Let cool slightly.
To assemble, spread about one tablespoon goat cheese on each crostini, then top with mushrooms.
Drizzle with honey, sprinkle with more thyme leaves to garnish and serve!

Notes

The more different mushroom varieties you use, the more complex it will taste.
Make sure your goat cheese is soft for easy spreading.
the mushrooms should be very well roasted and deeply caramelized for the best flavor.
If you can't find truffle honey, add a drip or two of truffle oil for the same touch.
For even more flavor, add a little bit of balsamic vinegar, sherry or marsala wine to the roasting pan with the mushrooms.
