Step 1
Preheat oven to 200C/gas mark 6. Cut the baguettes into slices about 1 cm thick.
Step 2
Mix the crushed garlic with the olive oil and brush each slice generously. Bake on a baking tray for about 5 mins until light golden brown. Put on cooling rack to cool.
Step 3
Turn up oven to 220C/gas mark 7. For the topping, place the whole peppers on a tray and bake at the top of the oven for about 30 mins turning once, until they are soft and the skin is blistered.
Step 4
Meanwhile, roast pinenuts for a few minutes on a tray in the oven until slightly coloured. When peppers are cool enough to handle, cut in half, remove stems and seeds, and cut into thin short strips.
Step 5
Arrange on the slices of baguette (crostini) with the pinenuts and basil leaves and sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper.
