Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 loaf Baguette
- 8 oz Brie cheese
- 1 cup Strawberries
- 10 leaves Fresh basil leaves
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 2 tbsp Balsamic glaze
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the baguette into 1/2-inch thick rounds, resulting in about 12 slices.
Arrange the baguette slices in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Brush each slice with olive oil on both sides, then place the baking sheet in the oven.
Toast the baguette slices for 5–7 minutes, or until they are lightly golden and crispy. Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly.
While the baguette is toasting, slice the Brie cheese into thin pieces that will fit atop the baguette slices.
Wash, hull, and slice the strawberries into thin slices.
Tear the fresh basil leaves into smaller pieces or leave them whole, depending on your preference.
Once the baguette slices are slightly cooled, layer each slice with a piece of Brie cheese.
Top the Brie cheese with 2–3 slices of strawberries and a piece of basil.
Sprinkle a pinch of salt and black pepper on top of each bruschetta for added flavor.
Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the top of the assembled bruschetta.
Serve immediately and enjoy this delightful combination of flavors and textures.
