Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tbsp olive oil
2 shallots, minced (about 1/3 c) ((can substitute red onion))
16 dried figs (about 2 cups), diced
1/3 c balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp honey, optional
1 baguette, sliced and toasted
1 cup crumbled blue cheese (or cambozola) ((can substitute goat cheese))
1 bunch arugula

Steps:

  • In a nonstick skillet over medium heat, combine oil and shallot; sauté until shallots are coated and beginning to soften (but not brown)
  • Add diced figs and vinegar and sauté for another 2-5 minutes or until figs soften and the glaze begins to thicken (if you are using the honey, add it now).
  • Sprinkle cheese on each crostini, evenly distributing it over the top of each piece
  • Top with a sprig of arugula and a spoonful of the fig mixture; serve immediately

CROSTINI WITH WARM GOAT CHEESE AND BALSAMIC FIGS



Crostini With Warm Goat Cheese and Balsamic Figs image

These are very easy to make and are absolutely delicious. The ingredients are estimates since it really depends on how large your crostini are. Feel free to make your own crostini by cutting french bread into thin slices and toasting them in the oven. Prep time does not include the soak time for the figs. Another option for serving, is to take the soaked figs and blend in a mini food processor, then spread on the goat cheese before baking.
