Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 loaf Baguette
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 8 ounces Mascarpone cheese
- 1 cup Fresh strawberries
- 1 cup Fresh blueberries
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 handful Fresh mint leaves (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the baguette into 1/2-inch thick slices on a slight diagonal to make approximately 12 pieces.
Brush both sides of each slice with olive oil and place them on a baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
While the crostini are baking, wash and prepare your berries. Slice the strawberries into thin pieces.
Once the crostini are ready and have cooled slightly, spread a generous layer of mascarpone cheese on each slice.
Top the mascarpone with a mix of sliced strawberries and blueberries.
Drizzle each crostini with honey for sweetness.
Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired for a burst of color and flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
