Time 40m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 loaf baguette
Olive oil, for brushing
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup grape or cherry tomatoes, cut in half
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup ricotta cheese
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

8 leaves fresh basil, cut into chiffonade

Steps:

  • For the crostini: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

Crostini with Whipped Feta & Roasted Tomatoes image

An easy Mediterranean appetizer, perfect for no-fuss summer entertainment!

Provided by Marilena Leavitt

Categories     Appetizer

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 baguette, sliced on the diagonal
2 cups multicolored grape tomatoes, cut in half
1 head of garlic
--- extra virgin olive oil
For the Whipped Feta Spread
8 oz. Greek Feta cheese, crumbled
¼ cup plain Greek yogurt
1 TBSP. white wine vinegar
½ tsp. sea salt
¼ tsp. freshly ground pepper
3-4 TBSP. extra virgin olive oil
--- fresh chives, minced

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375° F.
  • Slice the tomatoes in half, cut the top part of the head of garlic and bake for 30 minutes.
  • Make the whipped Feta spread: In a small food processor, place the feta, Greek yogurt, cider vinegar, salt and pepper and process until fairly smooth.
  • Slowly stream in the extra virgin olive oil, while continuing to blend (you may need more or less, depending on your desired consistency). Taste and adjust the seasoning.
  • Refrigerate for at least half an hour before using. Bring to room temperature, stir again and serve.
  • Toast the sliced bread for just 10 minutes, or until lightly brown.
  • Remove from the oven and spread some of the roasted garlic.
  • Next, spread the whipped feta on the slices and then top with roasted tomatoes.
  • Garnish with some fresh chives and serve.

Tips:

  • Select ripe tomatoes: Choose firm, ripe tomatoes with deep red color and no blemishes. This will ensure the best flavor and texture for your crostini.
  • Roast the tomatoes properly: Roasting the tomatoes brings out their natural sweetness and flavor. Make sure to roast them at a high temperature (400°F or 200°C) for about 30 minutes, or until they are slightly caramelized and tender.
  • Use good quality feta cheese: Feta cheese is a key ingredient in this recipe, so it's important to use a good quality cheese. Look for feta cheese that is made from sheep's milk or a mixture of sheep's and goat's milk. Avoid feta cheese that is made from cow's milk, as it will not have the same flavor or texture.
  • Make the crostini ahead of time: The crostini can be made ahead of time and stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. This makes them a great option for parties or gatherings.

Conclusion:

Feta and roasted tomato crostini is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is both flavorful and visually appealing. Whether you are serving them at a party or enjoying them as a snack, these crostini are sure to be a hit.
