Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 20 servings

  • 1 ½ (1 pound) loaves sliced white bread

  • 2 tablespoons butter

  • ½ pound fresh mushrooms, finely diced

  • ½ cup onion, finely diced

  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • teaspoon ground black pepper

  • teaspoon ground cayenne pepper

  • ½ cup half-and-half

  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

  • ½ cup Parmesan cheese, grated

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

  2. Use a small cookie cutter to cut rounds out of bread. Press rounds into ungreased mini muffin tins.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven until golden, 8 or 9 minutes; watch them closely as they bake fast. Turn out bread cups to cool.

  4. Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir mushrooms and onion in hot butter until soft, about 8 minutes. Season with parsley, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper. Pour in half-and-half, then gradually stir in flour until mixture is thickened.

  5. Fill bread cups with mushroom mixture and top each with a sprinkle of Parmesan. Place on a lightly greased baking sheet.

  6. Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted, 10 to 12 minutes.
