Ingredients
- 250-300 g brie cheese (1/2 inch thick slices, about 2 inches length)
- 16 slices baguette (sliced into 1/2 inch pieces)
- 4-5 strawberries, sliced
- 9-12 blackberries
- 3-4 tbsp apricot jam or fresh apricots
- fresh basil, fresh mint and pecans and fresh thyme for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to a low broil.
- Slice baguette into 1/2 inch slices. Add the baguette slices to a large baking sheet and top each slice of baguette with a piece of brie cheese.
- Cook the crostini on low broil until the brie is melted and edges of baguette are just golden. This will take about 3-5 minutes depending on your oven. **Put the baking sheet on a lower rack in the oven to avoid any burning**
- Remove the crostini from the oven and top each crostini with toppings: slices of strawberry & garnish with fresh basil leaves; a couple fresh blackberries & fresh mint leaves; and/or, a dollop of apricot jam or fresh apricot slices, pecan(s) and fresh thyme.
- Place the crostini on a serving tray, drizzle with honey and serve.
Notes
- If you don't have fresh strawberries on hand, substitute with a dollop of strawberry jam instead.
- If you don't have fresh blackberries on hand, try using a dollop of blackberry or blueberry jam instead.
- Use a gluten-free baguette to make the crostini appetizer gluten-free.
