Mushroom and Brie Crostini is a delicious appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. This dish is made with a combination of sautéed mushrooms, creamy brie cheese, and crispy crostini bread. The dish is easy to make and can be served as a starter or as a light meal.
To make Mushroom and Brie Crostini, you will need the following ingredients:
- 1 baguette, sliced into 1/2 inch rounds
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 pound mushrooms, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup white wine
- 1/4 cup chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 8 ounces brie cheese, sliced
To start, preheat your oven to 375°F. Brush the baguette slices with olive oil and place them on a baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the bread is crispy and golden brown.
While the bread is baking, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and garlic and sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and golden brown. Add the white wine and chicken broth and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the liquid has reduced by half. Stir in the thyme leaves and season with salt and pepper to taste.
To assemble the crostini, place a slice of brie cheese on each piece of bread and top with a spoonful of the mushroom mixture. Place the crostini back in the oven for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
The Mushroom and Brie Crostini is a perfect appetizer for any occasion. The dish is rich and creamy, with a savory mushroom flavor that is perfectly balanced by the tangy brie cheese. The crostini bread adds a crispy texture that complements the creamy cheese and mushroom filling.
