Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Step 2

Brush each baguette slice with olive oil. Toast until golden, 10-15 minutes.

Step 3

While your baguette slices are in the oven, prepare the crab. In a medium non-reactive bowl, use a fork to mix together crab meat, mayonnaise, horseradish, 2 teaspoons lime juice, chives, generous pinch of salt, and a few grinds of black pepper. Taste for seasoning, adding additional salt and or pepper to your liking.

Step 4

Scoop crab salad onto each piece of toasted baguette. Top with a sliver or two of avocado, an additional squirt of lime juice, and a light pinch of flaky salt. Serve right away.
