Notes
Serving size: The number of toasts you can make depends on the sizes of your slices of bread. I find I can typically make 4-6, but if you were using more crostini-sized slices you could make more!
Salt & pepper: I find a good amount of salt and pepper in this recipe helps to balance out the creaminess and sweetness of the other ingredients and makes these toasts perfectly savory!
