Ingredients

• 1 sourdough baguette, sliced crosswise into 1/2 in (1.24 cm)

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Arrange the bread slices on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle each slice on both sides with 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
3. Toast the bread in the oven for 4 minutes, then flip and toast for another 4 minutes on the other side, until light golden brown. Remove the bread from the oven and let cool for 2 minutes. Rub the cut sides of the garlic cloves on each slice of bread.
