Ingredients

1 baguette I used French
3 Tablespoons olive oil extra virgin
1 Tablespoon fresh herbs finely minced, to taste
1 teaspoon sea salt OR kosher salt, to taste
1/2 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

Slice the bread on a diagonal, about 1/4 inch per slice. Arrange in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet.
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, salt, pepper, and herbs. Brush each slice of bread with seasoned oil, dividing evenly.
Bake at 375°F. for 12-15 minutes or longer, according to desired crispiness.
*Alternately, brush with olive oil first and then sprinkle with fresh minced herbs, salt and pepper.
