Description
Simple, refreshing and delicious. The perfect summer appetizer (or meal, if you’re like me)!
Ingredients
- 1 whole Baguette, Sliced Into 24 Pieces
- ½ cups Ricotta Cheese
- 12 slices Prosciutto, Cut In Half
- 2 whole Nectarines, Pitted Then Thinly Sliced
- 30 leaves Basil, Cut Chiffonade
- Honey For Drizzling
- Salt And Pepper, to taste
- Butter Or Cooking Spray, For Toasting The Bread
Preparation
Preheat the broiler in your oven. Brush the baguette slices with some melted butter or spray with cooking spray. Put the bread onto a baking sheet, buttered side up. Toast the baguette slices under your broiler until lightly browned. Remove from oven and cool for a few minutes.
Spread each baguette slice with ½ to 1 teaspoon of ricotta cheese. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, then top each crostini with half of a piece of prosciutto. Evenly distribute your thinly sliced nectarines over the prosciutto. I usually have enough to use two slices per crostini. Drizzle the nectarines with honey, then sprinkle the basil over the top. Enjoy!
