Have you been to a farmers’ market lately? Well, my friend Priya has, and she came back with a basket of market goods for me to cook with. Lucky me!
I immediately reached out for a crusty loaf of olive-rosemary bread, amber-colored glass jar of spicy apricot jam, and soft, herb cheese. Wouldn’t they make a perfect appetizer?
Olive Bread Crostini with Spicy Apricot Jam and Herb Cheese
Directions
1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
2. Slice bread into 1/3 inch slices and lightly drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt and ground black pepper.
3. Toast bread on both sides until golden-brown and crusty, about 5 minutes.
4. Rub garlic over both sides of toast.
5. Spread cheese and jam over the bread and eat immediately. I am thinking a glass of chilled sparkling wine would go well with the crostini.
