Tomato And Goat Cheese Bruschetta
Key Ingredients You’ll Need:
- Goat Cheese, 4 ounces
Equipment Needed:
- Oven
How To Make Tomato And Goat Cheese Bruschetta, Step-By-Step
Step 1: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Cut the French baguette roll diagonally into 1/2-inch slices. You’ll need about 12 for four ounces of goat cheese.
Step 2: Brush extra virgin olive oil generously onto each bread slice. Sprinkle sea salt on top. Place the slices on a lined baking sheet.
Step 3: Toast the bread in the oven for 5 to 7 minutes at 400 degrees F. Every oven works differently. Begin cutting the goat cheese into 1-inch slices. Four ounces of goat cheese is enough for twelve bread slices.
Step 4: After 5 to 7 minutes of toasting, place one piece of goat cheese onto each bread slice. Place them back in the oven for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Step 5: Remove the bread slices from the oven and add a spoonful of bruschetta to each toasted bread slice.
