Fig And Blue Cheese Crostini Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the baguette slices and toast on both sides until golden and crisp, about 8 minutes. Allow to cool, then spread with a little fig spread/preserves. Top with blue cheese chunks. Sprinkle on some basil.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine the goat cheese, olive oil, honey and half of the tarragon, shallots and lemon zest. Season with salt and pepper.
• In a separate bowl, toss the figs with the lemon juice, saba vinegar and remaining tarragon, shallots and lemon zest. Season with salt and pepper.
• Spread the goat cheese mixture on the crostini, then top with the figs.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Place the bread on a baking sheet, brush with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toast until golden around the edges, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Spread each piece of bread with some of the blue cheese and divide the prosciutto and figs among them. Drizzle with honey and scatter thyme leaves over the top. Transfer to a platter before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler. Arrange baguette slices on baking sheet. Broil until lightly toasted on 1 side.
• Mash crumbled Gorgonzola and 1 tablespoon butter in small bowl until smooth. Spread Gorgonzola mixture evenly over untoasted side of baguette slices. Top with figs. Drizzle oil over figs. Broil until Gorgonzola mixture bubbles around edges, about 3 minutes. Transfer crostini to platter and serve.
