Instructions
BAKED BRIE CROSTINI WITH APPLE, HONEY & THYME
- Preheat your oven to 180°C. Place the @alwaysfreshau Crustini Toasts on a baking tray. Thinly slice the triple cream brie and arrange the slices evenly on each toast. Bake for 7–9 minutes until the brie has melted. Remove and cool for 2–3 minutes. Top the brie with small slices of red apple. Drizzle the honey over the brie and apple. Scatter small sprigs of thyme on top for a burst of flavour.
RICOTTA & LEMON CROSTINI WITH BALSAMIC STRAWBERRIES
- Lay out the @alwaysfreshau Crustini Toasts on a platter. In a small bowl, mix the ricotta cheese, lemon zest and lemon juice, then season with sea salt and pepper to taste. Spread this ricotta mix evenly on each toast. For the balsamic strawberries, place the strawberries, balsamic vinegar and brown sugar in a bowl and toss well. Place a few balsamic strawberries on top of each ricotta-covered toast. Once done, garnish with thinly sliced fresh mint.
