Servings: 18
Ingredients
- 18 slices baguette bread cut on the diagonal about 1/4-inch thick
- olive oil Extra-virgin
- 2 jars marinated artichoke hearts 6 to 6 1/2 ounces each
- 1/2 cup flat-leaf parsley plus 2 tablespoons chopped divided

- black pepper Freshly-ground
- 6 ounces creamy goat cheese crumbled
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F.

- Drain artichokes, reserving about 2 tablespoons of the oil they were packed in, and place them in a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Add reserved 2 tablespoons artichoke oil, 1/2 cup of the parsley, Parmesan cheese, and several grindings of black pepper. Process, pulsing machine, until mixture is a coarse puree. (Puree can be prepared 3 hours ahead; cover and leave at cool room temperature.)
- When ready to serve, spread each bread slice with a mound of artichoke puree and top with some crumbled goat cheese. (Bruschetta can be assembled 1 hour ahead; leave uncovered, at room temperature.)
- When ready to eat, bake until cheese is melted and bruschetta are warm, approximately 5 to 6 minutes. Sprinkle bruschetta with black pepper and some of the remaining parsley. Serve warm on a platter.
- Makes 18 bruschettas.
