Check out the video of Camila below to see watch her whip up this Grape Crostini.

Some of Camila’s tips for this recipe:

• Press your baguettes down with a spatula to perfectly toast them.
• Don’t use too much arugula, otherwise, they will look messy.
• Don’t be afraid to use your hands!
• The balsamic reduction has a very strong flavor, so just drizzle a little bit!

Camila's Grape Crostini

Ingredients

  • 1 loaf (12 slices) of good quality sourdough bread, sliced on a diagonal (brushed with oil and toasted on a hot pan)
  • 1-1/2 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 cup small red and green grapes, halved lengthwise and halved again
  • log of plain goat cheese (soften)
  • 6 thin slices of prosciutto, cut in half
  • 1/2 cup baby arugula
  • 1 tbsp. good quality balsamic glaze
  • flake salt and cracked pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Bring a chargrill or heavy-based fry pan to medium/high heat.
  • Slice bread thinly on an angle and brush with olive oil on both sides.
  • Place bread slices in batches on the hot pan and press down with a spatula.
  • Once golden and crisp, turn and repeat the process, remove crisped bread slices, and set aside.
  • Working in batches, assemble each slice of toasted/grilled bread with a ½ slice of prosciutto folded.
  • Add a few pieces of arugula, some crumbled goat cheese, a few red and green grape slices, and lightly drizzle with balsamic glaze.
  • Add a light sprinkle of flake salt and pepper if desired.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy!
