Be careful when handling the hot baking sheets and slicing the baguette. Make sure to let the crostini cool slightly before serving to avoid burning your guests' mouths!

1

Preheat the oven

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Brush with olive oil

Brush each baguette round with olive oil on both sides and place them on the prepared baking sheets.

4

Toast in the oven

Bake the baguette slices in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden and crisp. Flip them halfway through for even toasting.

Spread the fig jam

Once the crostini are cooled slightly, spread a generous layer of fig jam on each slice. This will add a touch of sweetness that complements the brie perfectly.

Add the brie

Cut a wheel of brie cheese into thin slices and place one slice on top of each crostini. The creamy and rich flavor of the brie will take these crostini to another level!

Garnish and serve

For an extra touch of elegance, sprinkle some chopped fresh thyme or rosemary over the crostini. Finally, arrange them on a serving platter and get ready to impress!
