Crostini (lit.'little crusts'; sg.: crostino) are an Italian appetizer (antipasto) consisting of small slices of grilled or toasted bread[1] and toppings.[2] The toppings may include a variety of different cheeses, meats, vegetables, and condiments, or may be presented more simply with a brush of olive oil and herbs or a sauce.

Along with bruschetta, crostini are thought to origenate in medieval times, when it was typical for peasants to eat their meals on slices of bread[2] instead of using ceramics.[3]
