1 pomegranate or 1/2 cup pomegranate seeds
2 Tbsp. fresh rosemary, minded
2 Tbsp. fresh thyme, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

Slice French bread about 1/2 inch to 1 inch slices. Brush with olive oil and broil for 1 minute and 30 seconds. Don't go over 2 minutes.
Preheat oven to 375.

Removed and immediately add on pomegranate seeds, fresh thyme and fresh rosemary. Salt and pepper to taste. Serve and enjoy!

Tips:

Select high-quality ingredients: Use fresh, flavorful baguette slices, thinly sliced prosciutto, creamy brie, sweet fig jam, and a drizzle of honey for the best results.
Preheat the oven: Make sure your oven is fully preheated before baking the crostini to ensure they become crispy and golden brown.
Spread the brie evenly: Use a small spoon to spread the brie cheese evenly over the baguette slices. This will help prevent the cheese from becoming too thick or clumpy.
Arrange the prosciutto and figs: Top the brie-covered baguette slices with prosciutto slices and fig jam. Make sure to arrange them neatly for an appealing presentation.
Drizzle with honey: Before baking, drizzle the crostini with a small amount of honey. This will add a touch of sweetness and help caramelize the prosciutto.
Bake until golden brown: Bake the crostini in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the prosciutto is crispy. Keep an eye on them to prevent overcooking.
Serve warm: Serve the prosciutto and brie crostini warm, garnished with fresh thyme or chopped chives for extra flavor and color.
