Quick Air Fryer Crostini
Air fryer crostini is an easy appetizer to make when you're looking for a quick, elevated crowd pleaser. This simple recipe is perfect to make during the hot summer months when you don't want to turn on the oven.
Equipment
- air fryer
Ingredients
- 1 baguette or long Italian bread such as ciabatta
- 2-3 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 clove garlic
Instructions
- Slice the bread into half-inch rounds. I like to slice them on the diagonal so they are elongated.
- Lightly brush each side of the sliced bread with olive oil. Or simply drizzle it on top.
- Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. When preheated, arrange the baguette slices into a single layer in the air fryer basket. You may have to work in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
- Air fry for 3 minutes. Remove the crostini from the air fryer and let it cool for a few minutes. When it is cool enough to touch, rub a clove of garlic over the face of the crostini if desired. Enjoy as it or top with your favorite toppings!
Notes
- No air fryer? Use an oven or toasted oven to get the same results! You will need to bake it at 400 degrees for 7-8 minutes.
- You will likely need to work in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
- For a less crispy crostini, try air frying for only 1-2 minutes.
- You can omit the oil for an oil-free version.
- Serve with your favorite toppings such as tomatoes, cheese, balsamic glaze and fruit! I highly recommend trying peach crostini with goat cheese and basil.
