Ingredients
Scale
- For the Crostini:
- 1 baguette, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- For the Whipped Brie:
- 8 ounces brie cheese, rind removed, at room temperature
- 2 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- For the Roasted Peaches:
- 2 ripe peaches, pitted and sliced into wedges
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- For Assembly:
- 1/2 cup fresh blackberries
- Hot honey, for drizzling
- 1/4 cup crushed pistachios
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Arrange baguette slices on a baking sheet. Brush both sides with olive oil and season lightly with salt and pepper. Toast for 6-8 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crisp. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, combine the brie, cream cheese, heavy cream, and salt. Use a hand mixer or whisk to whip until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
- On a separate baking sheet lined with parchment paper, toss peach wedges with honey and lemon juice. Roast for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized. Let cool slightly.
- To assemble, spread a generous amount of whipped brie on each crostini. Top with a roasted peach slice and a few blackberries.
- Drizzle hot honey over each crostini and sprinkle with crushed pistachios.
- Serve immediately.
Notes
Whipped brie can be made up to 1 day ahead and stored covered in the refrigerator. Let come to room temperature before spreading. Roast the peaches shortly before serving for best texture.
