Fig And Brie Crostini Recipes

BRIE, FIG, AND PROSCIUTTO CROSTINI

Steps:

• Begin by diagonally slicing the baguette. Then, place the slices in a single layer on a baking sheet. Brush them with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place the baking sheet on the top rack of your oven and broil the bread 4-5 minutes until it is golden brown. Set aside to cool.
• In a small bowl, gently toss together the arugula, olive oil, and a little salt and pepper.
• Begin by spreading the toast with fig jam. Top with a slice of brie and prosciutto. Finish it off with a few pieces of arugula.

PROSCIUTTO AND BRIE CROSTINI

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Line a baking sheet with foil.
• Arrange the baguette slices on the prepared baking sheet. Cut the Brie into 1/4-inch-thick slices and put 1 slice on each piece of baguette. Broil until the cheese is melted, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Drizzle the toasts with the honey and then top with some prosciutto and a sprinkle of thyme leaves if using.

CROSTINI WITH FIG SPREAD & BUBBLED BRIE

• Brush baguette slices with olive oil, and place oil side down on large baking sheet.
• Spread about 1/2 tbsp fig spread on each baguette, top with brie slices, and sprinkle with fresh thyme.
• Bake at 450 degrees for 10-12 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly.

FIG AND RICOTTA CROSTINI

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Place the baguette slices on an ungreased, foil-lined baking sheet.
• Bake the bread in the preheated oven until the bottoms are brown, about 5 minutes; flip and bake until crisp, 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven.
• Spread 1 tablespoon of ricotta on each slice of toasted bread. Place a few ribbons of basil on each, arrange a slice of fig on top, and drizzle the finished crostini with balsamic vinegar.

HAM AND BRIE CROSTINI WITH FIG JAM

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly brush both sides of baguette slices with oil and place slightly spaced on rimmed baking pans. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned and crisp.
• Top each slice with ham and Brie and bake for an additional 5-8 minutes or until Brie has just begun to melt. Top each crostini with fig jam and serve warm for best flavor.
