This crostini is an amazing appetizer because it seems fancy but is so simple to make. The flavors of goat cheese, pear and prosciutto work together perfectly. Ingredients:
1/2 cup (2 ounces) crumbled goat cheese |
7 teaspoons 1% low-fat milk |
24 thin slices french bread baguette, lightly toasted, or 24 crisp croissant crackers (such as carr's, available nationwide) |
3 thin slices prosciutto, coarsely chopped |
2 ripe but firm bartlett or comice pears, cored and cut into 12 wedges |
Directions:
1. Combine cheese and milk to form a spreadable (but not wet) consistency. Spread about 1 teaspoon of the mixture evenly over each baguette slice.
2. Cook prosciutto in a nonstick skillet, stirring frequently over medium heat until crisp (about 5 minutes). Transfer to a paper towel to drain.
3. Place 1 pear wedge on each baguette slice; arrange attractively on a serving platter. Sprinkle prosciutto over appetizers.
