Prosciutto and Fig Crostini

Ingredients

Fresh basil leaves

10-12 leaves

Balsamic glaze

2 tablespoons

Honey

2 tablespoons

Goat cheese

200 grams, softened

Fresh figs

6-8, sliced thin

Prosciutto

10-12 slices, thin

Baguette

1 loaf

Olive oil

2 tablespoons

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Slice the baguette into 1/2-inch thick slices, yielding 10-12 slices depending on the size of the baguette.
3. Arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Ensure each slice is lightly coated for a golden toast.
4. Toast the baguette slices in the preheated oven for 5-7 minutes, or until they turn golden brown. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
5. While the baguette slices are toasting, slice the fresh figs into thin rounds.
6. Once the baguette slices are toasted, spread a generous layer of softened goat cheese on each slice.
7. Layer each slice with a piece of prosciutto, followed by a few slices of fresh fig.
8. Drizzle each crostini with honey and balsamic glaze, adding a sweet and tangy contrast to the salty prosciutto.
9. Garnish each crostini with a fresh basil leaf, adding a burst of freshness and color.
10. Serve the crostini immediately and enjoy the symphony of flavors!
