Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.

Then, add the drained artichoke hearts, Parmesan, mayonnaise, lemon zest, lemon juice, grated garlic, salt, and pepper to a food processor. Blend until the mixture is well-combined, but there are still some larger chunks of artichoke hearts. Taste and add more seasoning, if needed.

Use a rubber spatula to spread about 1-1 1/2 tablespoons of filling on each crostini. Place the crostini in a single layer on the prepared sheet pan.

Bake the bruschetta for 5-7 minutes, until the filling is hot. Then, turn the broiler to high and broil for 1-2 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and browned in some spots. Garnish with more lemon zest, Parmesan, and/or black pepper, if desired and enjoy immediately.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Toast Your Crostini for Crunch 🍞
Lightly brush crostini with olive oil and toast at 400°F for 3-4 minutes until golden and crispy to prevent them from becoming soggy when topped with the creamy artichoke mixture.
Drain Artichokes Thoroughly 💧
Pat canned artichokes dry with paper towels and chop them finely to remove excess moisture, which prevents the topping from becoming watery and sliding off the crostini.
Emulsify Lemon and Mayo Properly 🍋
Whisk lemon juice into mayo slowly while stirring to create a stable, cohesive spread that distributes evenly across the crostini and won't separate.
Layer Flavors for Maximum Impact ✨
Spread the mayo-lemon base first, then add artichokes, followed by a sprinkle of Parmesan and lemon zest on top to create distinct flavor layers that hit the palate at different moments.
Assemble Just Before Serving ⏰
Prepare the artichoke topping ahead, but assemble bruschetta no more than 15 minutes before serving to maintain crostini crispness and prevent the toppings from becoming limp.
