Quick and elegant holiday brie crostini topped with seasonal jams, crunchy nuts, and a drizzle of honey, ready in just 10 minutes for effortless entertaining.
Ingredients
8 oz brie cheese, sliced
1 baguette, sliced into 16 pieces
1/4 cup fig jam, apricot jam, or cranberry sauce
1/4 cup chopped nuts (walnuts, pecans, or pistachios)
2 tbsp honey
Fresh rosemary sprigs, for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to a low broil setting.
- Place baguette slices on a baking sheet and top each with a slice of brie.
- Broil on the lower rack for 3–5 minutes, until brie melts and bread edges turn golden.
- Remove from oven and top each crostini with a dollop of jam and a sprinkle of nuts.
- Arrange on a serving tray, drizzle with honey, and garnish with fresh rosemary.
Notes
- Best served fresh, right after making.
- Experiment with different jam and nut pairings like blueberry with walnuts or strawberry with almonds.
- For a nut-free version, use only jam, honey, and herbs.
- To keep bread softer inside, avoid pre-toasting before adding brie.
- Make gluten-free by using a gluten-free baguette.
