Sausage & Cheese Crostini

If you like creamy, savory dips with a little crunch on the side, this Sausage & Cheese Crostini is going to hit the spot. It’s a warm, cheesy mixture of breakfast sausage and cream cheese that gets scooped onto crisp baguette slices. The whole thing comes together quickly and feels just indulgent enough to serve at a party or holiday gathering.

You should make Sausage & Cheese Crostini when you’re short on time but still want something hot and satisfying. It only takes a few ingredients, but the flavor is rich and craveable. The chives give it just enough freshness to balance the richness.

Helpful Tips

• Use bulk breakfast sausage. It cooks quickly and has built-in seasoning that gives the dip extra flavor.
• Let the cream cheese fully melt. Stir slowly over low heat so the mixture gets smooth and creamy without scorching.
• Toast the baguette slices. A light toast in the oven gives them a crisp texture that holds up to the warm sausage mixture.
