Crostini and Toppings
Method
Preparation
Prepare the Crostinis
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the French baguette into 1/2 inch thick slices. Arrange the slices on a baking sheet and brush both sides with olive oil. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
Make the Tomato Topping
While the crostinis are baking, dice the fresh tomatoes and place them in a bowl. Add salt, black pepper, and a tablespoon of olive oil. Mix gently to combine.
Assemble the Bruschetta
Once the crostinis are ready, remove them from the oven. Spread a generous amount of ricotta cheese on each crostini. Top with the seasoned tomato mixture and finish with fresh basil leaves.
Serve
Drizzle a little more olive oil over the assembled bruschetta before serving. Enjoy your delicious bruschetta warm or at room temperature.
