Honey Goat’s Cheese Crostini with Prosciutto and Walnuts

Method

1. Step 1

Preheat your oven to 190 degrees C/170 degrees Fan.

2. Step 2

Slice the baguette diagonally across into slices around 1cm thick. You should be able to get approximately 25 slices out of a 200g baguette, but less or more is fine.

3. Step 3

Lay the bread slices on a lined baking tray and lightly brush each slice with olive oil, making sure to do both sides.

4. Step 4

Bake the slices for 5-7 minutes, then remove from the oven, flip the slices, and return to the oven for another 5-7 minutes until browned and crispy.

5. Step 5

Leave the crostini to cool completely before adding the toppings.

6. Step 6

Heat a small frying pan over a medium-high heat and add the walnuts. Stir them continuously in the pan until the begin to brown and smell toasted – this should take around 5 minutes. Remove from the pan, and place on a plate or baking sheet to cool.

7. Step 7

To assemble your crostinis, spread a healthy amount of Cabra Carino over your baked bread slices.

8. Step 8

Add one strip of prosciutto to each crostini, ensuring that it is folded so the meat is contained on top of the cheese.

9. Step 9

Repeat this step until all the bread slices are full.

10. Step 10

Place the slices on a baking sheet, and sprinkle the toasted walnuts over the top so that each crostini gets a nice helping.

11. Step 11

Drizzle with olive oil and season with black pepper as desired.

12. Step 12

Serve on a platter, and enjoy!
