Sweet Plum Bruschetta with Goat Cheese
Equipment
- Sheet Pan
- Large Mixing Bowl
Ingredients
- 1 large baguette about 24 baguette slices, 2/3 inch thick
- 4 plums halved, pits removed
- 1/4 cup red onion finely chopped
- 1/2 cup fresh basil thinly sliced or julienned
- 4 ounces plain chevre goat cheese
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon honey
Instructions
- Slice the baguette, and place the slices on a sheet pan. Place the pan in the oven, and broil them on high heat for 3 to 4 minutes until they begin to lightly brown. Be sure to watch the bread while it's under the broiler so it doesn't burn. Remove pan from the oven and set aside to cool.
- Chop the plums into bite-sized pieces about 1/4 inch. Place the diced plums into a large mixing bowl. Add the chopped onion, basil, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and honey. Toss well to combine.
- Spread about 1 teaspoon of goat cheese on each toast. And top with 1 tablespoon of the bruschetta mixture. Place the topped toasts on a serving place. Repeat adding the goat cheese and bruschetta to each toast.
- Serve immediately at room temperature. Store leftover bruschetta in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 2 days.
