Prosciutto & Brie Crostini

Recipe Courtesy of

Serves 8

Prep Time: 30 minutes

Cook Time: 12 minutes

Total Time: 42 minutes

Ingredients

1 baguette – sliced into 1/2-inch rounds (about 24 slices)
(Save time and buy premade crostinis)
6-12 oz. brie, softened to room temperature. I like to keep the rind on to add more flavor, but you can easily cut it off.
Slice brie into thin slices to equal the bread slices.
24 slices of Prosciutto thinly sliced
1 Tbs Balsamic Vinegar
2 Tbs. olive oil
Kosher salt
1/2 cup coarsely chopped toasted walnuts
2 Tbs. thinly sliced chives

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Lightly brush both sides of each bread slice with oil.
Season with salt and pepper.
Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet.
Toast in oven until pale golden, 5-6 minutes per side.
Transfer sheet to a wire rack; let crostini cool completely.
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, toss the walnuts with balsamic vinegar.
Place brie and prosciutto on top of crostini, and then top with the nut mixture. Sprinkle with the chives and serve.
