Tips & Techniques

  • High Altitude (3500-6500 ft)

    No changes.

  • Substitution

    If an imported cheese shop is available to you, try a different firm and flavorful cheese such as manchego or Asiago in place of the Swiss cheese.

  • Success

    Baguettes vary in width. If your baguette is very narrow, you may need 30 slices to hold all of the filling.

  • Do-Ahead

    The bread can be baked ahead, covered and stored at room temperature. Prepare the crab mixture the day before; cover and refrigerate. Assemble the appetizers just before baking them.

Ingredients

  • 1/2  French baguette, cut into 1/4-inch slices (24 slices)
  • 1  tablespoon olive or vegetable oil
  • 1  can (6 ounces) crabmeat, well drained and flaked
  • 1  jar (2 ounces) diced pimientos, well drained
  • 2  ounces shredded Swiss cheese (1/2 cup)
  • 1/2  cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4  cup chive and onion cream cheese spread (from 8-ounce container)
  • 1/4  teaspoon red pepper sauce
  • 1  tablespoon chopped fresh chives

Directions

  1. 1Heat oven to 400°. Place bread slices on large ungreased cookie sheet. Brush tops lightly with oil. Bake 3 to 5 minutes or until crisp and very light brown.
  2. 2Meanwhile, mix remaining ingredients except chives in medium bowl. Spread 1 rounded table-spoonful crabmeat mixture on each bread slice.
  3. 3Bake about 5 minutes or until filling is hot and cheese is melted. Sprinkle with chives.
