Vickys Ghastly 'Ghostinis' with Bloody Tapenade step by step

  1. Preheat the oven to gas 6 / 200C / 400°F.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Combine the peppers, olives, sundried tomatoes and flavoured oil, capers, parsley, water, vinegar and remaining 1/4 tsp pepper in a blender.
  5. Process smooth then pulse in the lemon juice. Add extra oil to get the consistency you prefer and season to taste.
  6. Serve the ghostinis with the tapenade and extra breadsticks (gluten-free vegan recipe in my profile) and crackers if desired.
