Small Croustades a LA Bonne Maman

Ingredients

Directions

The book gives no oven temperature. The 400°F (200°C) in the steps was added when the recipe was transcribed, as a starting point.

  1. Cut French rolls into thick, equal slices.

  2. Mark each slice in the center with a small cutter.

  3. Dip the slices into butter or marrow.

  4. Fry them lightly or bake at 400°F (200°C) until just golden.

  5. Empty the croustades and fill them with your desired filling.

  6. Serve without a napkin and pour good brown gravy around them.
