Strawberry Bruschetta Recipe
I’m a fiend for this…
I went to a baby shower and the whole theme was “Berry First Birthday” and this was one of the appetizers. It was so good and I probably ate way too many of them, and think I just really liked the glaze :P
1 baguette, cut into 1" slices
1/4 cup plus 2 tsp. extra-virgin olive oil, divided
Fresh mozzarella (one log should be fine)
2 cups strawberries, chopped
2 Tbsp. fresh basil, thinly sliced (optional)
Balsamic glaze, for serving
Ingredients
Directions:
Step One:
Preheat oven to 400°.
Step Two:
Place baguette slices on a medium sheet tray and drizzle or brush with 1/4 cup olive oil. Bake until bread is toasted, about 10 minutes.
Step Three:
Cut up the mozzarella into small slices and put on top of the toasted baguette (you can melt the cheese on top or not).
Step Four:
Garnish with basil (optional) and drizzle with balsamic glaze. Then you’re done!
I searched for recipes and kind of made some tweaks to make it taste like what I had there (like switching out ricotta for mozzarella). You can use cherry tomatoes or strawberries, but I honestly liked it with the strawberries more.
