Ingredients
  

For the Crostini
  • 1 loaf Baguette Use a fresh baguette for the best crispy texture.

For the Herb Butter
  • 1/2 cup Butter For creaminess and rich flavor; remember to bring it to room temperature for easy spreading.
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Parsley Provides aromatic freshness; can be substituted with dill for a unique twist.
  • 2 tablespoons Chives Compliments the butter with a mild onion flavor; you could swap with green onions if desired.
  • 1 teaspoon Lemon Zest Brightens the herb butter; freshly grated provides a stronger flavor to lift the dish.
