Ricotta & Pesto Crostini
by Hayley Lardinais, Account Coordinator
This is the easiest appetizer or snack to bring to a gathering, with the biggest pay-off. You definitely won’t have to worry about taking leftovers home with you. They may not be the prettiest, but boy, do they taste good!
Ricotta & Pesto Crostinis
Equipment
- Baking Sheet
Ingredients
- 1 french baguette sliced
- olive oil to taste
- ricotta cheese to taste
- pesto to taste
- crushed red pepper flakes to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Cut the baguette diagonally into ½ inch slices. Arrange baguette slices onto a baking sheet and brush evenly with olive oil before baking for 4-5 minutes.
- Once bread has cooled for a few minutes, spread a spoonful of ricotta cheese on each slice (amount is up to personal preference and the size of the crostini.)
- Place a dollop of pesto on top of each crostini. You can use store bought, or make it yourself - my favorite pesto is the Kirkland brand!
- Sprinkle with crushed red pepper flakes as desired, and enjoy!
