Ingredients
  

8 oz mixed mushrooms (cremini, shiitake, and button), sliced

2 tbsp olive oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tsp fresh thyme leaves (or 1/2 tsp dried thyme)

Salt and black pepper, to taste

4 slices of crusty bread (such as sourdough or baguette)

8 oz Brie cheese, rind removed and sliced

2 tbsp balsamic glaze (optional)

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Sauté the Mushrooms: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they are golden brown and tender.

    Add Garlic and Thyme: Stir in the minced garlic and thyme. Sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Remove from heat and set aside.

      Preheat the Broiler: Set your oven’s broiler to high to preheat while you prepare the toasts.

        Prepare the Bread: Place the slices of crusty bread on a baking sheet. Optionally, drizzle a little olive oil on top for added flavor and crispness.

          Assemble the Toasts: On each slice of bread, layer a generous amount of the sautéed mushroom mixture, then top with slices of Brie cheese.

            Broil the Toasts: Place the baking sheet under the broiler for about 3-5 minutes, watching closely, until the Brie is melted and bubbly. You want the cheese to be gooey without burning the bread.

              Add Balsamic Glaze: If desired, drizzle balsamic glaze over the melted Brie for an added touch of sweetness and flavor.

                Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and serve warm. Enjoy these delicious, savory melts as an appetizer, light lunch, or snack!
