How to Make Easy Egg Salad Crostini
Making the Egg Salad
The first step in making the egg salad crostini is whipping up a batch of creamy egg salad. Start by boiling six eggs or placing them in the Ninja Foodi pressure cooker until hard-boiled.
Once cooled, peel and dice your eggs before mixing them with mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, salt & pepper, and chives for added flavor.
You can also get creative with your ingredients here - try adding in some diced celery or red onion for extra crunch!
Making the Crostini
Crostini are simply thin slices of toast that are lightly brushed with olive oil and baked until crispy.
To make them at home, grab a baguette from the store and preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Slice off ½ inch thick slices of bread and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Brush each piece evenly with olive oil before baking for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown.
Sprinkle with dill.
Assembly Time!
Now comes the fun part, assembling your crostini!
Take out those freshly made crostini slices and spread each one with a generous spoonful of egg salad.
For an extra fancy touch, garnish each one with some fresh chives or parsley (or even some bacon bits!).
You can also top it off with a sprinkle of paprika or black pepper for some extra flavor and color!
Enjoy!
