03 - Place the baguette slices in a circular pattern on a baking sheet, slightly overlapping each slice to form a ring.
04 - Lightly brush the top of each slice with extra-virgin olive oil, rub with the cut side of the garlic clove, and sprinkle with chopped fresh herbs if desired.
05 - Bake for 8 to 10 minutes until the slices turn golden brown and are crisp to the touch.
