- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Brush both sides of bread slices with remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Arrange bread in a single layer on a baking sheet.
- Bake bread slices in the preheated oven, turning once, until golden, about 25 minutes. Cool crostini on a rack.
- Top each crostini with 3/4 tablespoon red pepper spread just before serving.
