Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 12 minutes
Total Time 27 minutes
Servings: 8 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 baguette sliced
  • 1 1/2 cups strawberries quartered
  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F and toast the oiled baguette slices until golden, about 7 minutes.
  2. Toss the quartered strawberries with the balsamic vinegar and brown sugar on a separate pan.
  3. Roast the strawberries for 10 to 12 minutes, until soft and glossy.
  4. Spread ricotta onto each crostini.
  5. Top with the warm balsamic strawberries and a drizzle of the pan juices.

Notes

Let the strawberries cool slightly so the ricotta doesn't melt away.
