Ingredients
Scale
To make Pomegranate, Cranberry & Brie Bruschetta, gather these ingredients:
- 1 French baguette, sliced into 12 pieces
- 8 oz brie cheese, sliced into 12 thin pieces
- ½ cup cranberry sauce (homemade or store-bought)
- ½ cup pomegranate seeds
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Pinch of sea salt
- Freshly ground black pepper (optional)
Instructions
Prepare the Baguette Slices
- Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Slice the Baguette: Cut the baguette into 12 slices, about ½ inch thick each.
- Toast the Bread: Arrange the slices on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt. Toast in the oven for 8-10 minutes, or until golden and crisp.
Prepare the Toppings
- Slice the Brie: While the bread is toasting, slice the brie into thin, even pieces that fit the size of the baguette slices.
- Chop the Rosemary: Finely chop the fresh rosemary leaves for garnishing.
Assemble the Bruschetta
- Add Brie to Toasted Bread: Remove the toasted baguette slices from the oven and immediately place a slice of brie on each piece, allowing it to soften slightly from the warmth.
- Top with Cranberry Sauce: Spoon a dollop of cranberry sauce onto each brie-topped slice.
- Add Pomegranate Seeds: Sprinkle pomegranate seeds over the cranberry sauce for a burst of flavor and texture.
- Drizzle with Honey: Finish with a light drizzle of honey over each bruschetta.
Garnish and Serve
- Garnish: Sprinkle with chopped rosemary and a touch of freshly ground black pepper if desired.
- Serve Immediately: Arrange the bruschetta on a serving platter and serve while the brie is soft and warm.
