Strawberry, Brie Cheese, Honey & Basil Crostini

Ingredients:

• French Baguette
• 4 oz. Brie cheese
• 6 Medium Strawberries
• 1 to 2 Tbsp honey or agave nectar
• 4 fresh basil leaves, thinly sliced

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350°.

2. Slice the French baguette into 12 thin slices on a diagonal angle.

3. Slice the strawberries.

4. On a baking sheet, lay the baguette slices so they do not touch.

5. Top each piece of baguette with a thin slice of Brie cheese.

6.  Bake in oven until the cheese is melted and the bread has a slight toasted feel to it – be careful to not cook too long.

7. On each baguette slice, place 2 slices of strawberries on top of the melted cheese.  Carefully top it with 1/2 teaspoon of honey and a few slices of basil.

Helpful Tips!

Most bakeries in the grocery stores will slice the French baguette for you!!  Save some time and ask them if they are able to do this for you!
