Prosciutto Basil Crostini Recipes

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.

WHITE BEAN-PROSCIUTTO CROSTINI

Steps:

• Combine 2 finely chopped garlic cloves, 2/3 cup diced prosciutto, a pinch of red pepper flakes and one 15-ounce can cannellini beans (drained and rinsed) in a food processor. Add 3 tablespoons olive oil and puree until smooth, adding a splash of water to loosen; season with salt. Add 1 more can cannellini beans and pulse until just combined but still a little chunky. Add more salt to taste. Toast 1 sliced baguette in a grill pan; rub with a garlic clove. Spread each piece with the bean puree, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with chopped sage.

PROSCIUTTO-BASIL CROSTINI

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly brush both sides of each bread slice with oil. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet. Toast in oven until pale golden, about 7 minutes per side. Transfer sheet to a wire rack; let crostini cool completely.
• Divide basil leaves and folded slices of prosciutto among crostini. Drizzle with oil. Season with pepper.
