Tree Nut Free Smoky Paprika Artichoke & Olive Crostini

These crostini are the kind of appetizer that disappears from the platter before you even sit down. Whole-grain baguette slices get toasted until golden and crisp, then topped with a boldly flavored spread of artichoke hearts, Kalamata olives, smoked paprika, and a hit of lemon juice that ties everything together. The food processor does the heavy lifting, pulsing everything into a chunky, spreadable mixture that still has real texture — rustic and satisfying rather than a smooth paste. Sautéed garlic goes in right at the start, bloomed in olive oil until fragrant, which gives the whole topping a savory depth that punches well above its ingredient list. A pinch of crushed red pepper flakes adds just enough warmth to keep things interesting without overwhelming the briny olive and earthy artichoke flavors. Every ingredient here is naturally free of tree nuts, so there's no need to scrutinize labels or swap anything out — the recipe just works as written. Finish with a scatter of fresh parsley and a squeeze of lemon, and you've got a crowd-pleasing bite that looks impressive with almost no effort.
