Helpful Tips

1. Customize the Heat Level: Buffalo sauce can vary in heat, so feel free to adjust the amount you use based on your preference. For a milder flavor, you can mix in some ranch or blue cheese dressing with the buffalo sauce. If you like it spicier, add a dash of cayenne pepper or use a hotter buffalo sauce.
2. Use Quality Baguette: The foundation of a great crostini is the bread. Opt for a fresh, crusty baguette that will hold up well under the weight of the toppings. If you can, slice the baguette just before toasting to ensure maximum freshness and crunch.
3. Make Ahead for Convenience: To save time, you can prepare the buffalo chicken mixture in advance and store it in the refrigerator. Assemble the crostini just before serving to keep the bread crispy. You can also toast the baguette slices ahead of time and store them in an airtight container until you’re ready to add the toppings and bake.
