I remember the exact moment I knew I had nailed it. I was experimenting with different textures and cheeses for my Creamy Mushroom Toast, and something was missing.

• 1 pound mixed mushrooms, sliced: Cremini, shiitake, oyster… go wild!
• 4 tablespoons butter: Unsalted, because we’re controlling the salt content.
• 2 cloves garlic, minced: Don’t skimp on the garlic; it’s essential.
• 1/2 cup heavy cream: This is where the “creamy” comes in!
• 1/4 cup dry sherry: This adds a nutty depth that’s pure magic.
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme: Fresh herbs are always better.
• 1 tablespoon sherry vinegar: The secret weapon for brightness.
• Salt and pepper to taste: Season generously.
• 4 slices of crusty bread: Sourdough, baguette, or ciabatta work great.
• 2 ounces goat cheese, crumbled: Adds a tangy counterpoint to the mushrooms.

The secret to epic Creamy Mushroom Toast is using a mix of mushrooms. It adds complexity and depth you won’t get with just one variety. You’ll find the best ingredients for this delicious Creamy Mushroom Toast at your local farmer’s market or a well-stocked grocery store. Splurge on the fresh thyme – trust me, it makes a world of difference!

If you’re on a budget, you can substitute vegetable broth for the sherry, but the sherry adds a layer of richness you’ll miss! Store your mushrooms in a paper bag in the fridge to keep them fresh for longer. This Creamy Mushroom Toast ingredient list is SHORT but mighty!

1. Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are browned and softened, about 8-10 minutes. Don’t overcrowd the pan, or they’ll steam instead of brown.
2. Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for another minute, until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic; burnt garlic is a flavor party foul.
3. Pour in the dry sherry and cook for 2-3 minutes, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Those browned bits are pure flavor gold!
4. Stir in the heavy cream, thyme, sherry vinegar, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
5. While the mushroom mixture is simmering, toast the bread slices. I like to brush mine with olive oil before toasting for extra flavor.
6. Spread the Creamy Mushroom topping generously over the toasted bread. Don’t be shy; we want every bite to be bursting with flavor!
7. Top with crumbled goat cheese and serve immediately. A sprinkle of fresh thyme on top adds a pop of color and freshness.
