Vickys Ghastly 'Ghostinis' with Bloody Tapenade instructions
- Preheat the oven to gas 6 / 200C / 400°F.
- With a ghost or other halloween shaped cookie cutter, cut shapes from each slice of bread. You should get at least 2 from each slice. I used a 2.5 inch cutters. Keep the bread scraps for another use.
- Place the shapes on a baking sheet, brush with a little of the olive oil, sprinkle with the salt and 1/4tsp of the pepper and toast for 12 minutes or until golden, turning halfway though.
- Combine the peppers, olives, sundried tomatoes and flavoured oil, capers, parsley, water, vinegar and remaining 1/4 tsp pepper in a blender.
- Process smooth then pulse in the lemon juice. Add extra oil to get the consistency you prefer and season to taste.
- Serve the ghostinis with the tapenade and extra breadsticks (gluten-free vegan recipe in my profile) and crackers if desired.
