Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Baguette or sourdough bread
- 200 grams Brie cheese
- 1 Avocado
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 handful Fresh arugula (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) or set your broiler to high.
Slice the baguette or sourdough bread into four even pieces and arrange them on a baking sheet.
Drizzle the olive oil lightly over the top of each bread slice to help them crisp up in the oven.
Spread about 1/2 tablespoon of Dijon mustard on each slice of bread, making sure to cover the surface evenly.
Slice the Brie cheese into thin pieces and layer them generously over the mustard-coated bread. Use approximately 50 grams of Brie per slice.
Halve the avocado, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash the avocado with a fork until smooth, then season with salt and black pepper. Set aside.
Place the baking sheet with the bread and Brie under the broiler or in the oven. Toast for 5-7 minutes, or until the Brie is melted and bubbly and the edges of the bread are golden.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool slightly for 1-2 minutes.
Spread the mashed avocado onto each melted Brie slice, creating a creamy layer on top.
If desired, add a small handful of fresh arugula on top of each slice for added texture and a peppery flavor.
Serve warm and enjoy immediately!
