Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 loaf Baguette
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 8 ounces Brie cheese
- 0.5 cup Fig spread
- 1 teaspoon Fresh rosemary (optional, for garnish)
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the baguette into thin, diagonal slices about 1/2-inch thick. You should have roughly 12-15 slices.
Arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet. Brush the tops lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Place the baking sheet in the oven and toast the baguette slices for 5-6 minutes, or until they are just beginning to turn golden and crisp.
While the bread toasts, slice the brie cheese into small, thin pieces that will fit nicely on top of the crostini.
Remove the crostini from the oven and spread about 1 teaspoon of fig spread onto each slice.
Top each slice with a piece of brie, ensuring the cheese covers the fig spread.
Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for another 2-3 minutes, or until the brie is bubbly and slightly melted.
Remove the crostini from the oven and garnish with a small sprig of fresh rosemary, if desired. Serve immediately while warm.
