Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 loaf Baguette
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 clove Garlic
- 150 grams Gorgonzola cheese
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the baguette into 12 even slices, approximately 1/2-inch thick.
Brush both sides of each baguette slice lightly with olive oil using a pastry brush.
Place the baguette slices on a baking sheet and toast them in the preheated oven for about 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crisp.
While the bread is toasting, peel the garlic clove and cut it in half.
Once the toasted bread is out of the oven, rub the cut side of the garlic onto one side of each baguette slice for a subtle garlicky flavor.
Spread a generous amount of Gorgonzola cheese on the garlic-rubbed side of each toasted baguette slice.
Drizzle each bruschetta with about 1/4 teaspoon of honey, or more to taste.
Sprinkle fresh thyme leaves over the top of each bruschetta for added aroma and flavor.
Season lightly with sea salt and a pinch of freshly ground black pepper.
Serve the bruschetta immediately while the bread is warm and crispy.
