Baba Ganoush Bruschetta
Baba Ganoush Bruschetta, a fusion take on two classic appetizers, with toasted bruschetta, topped with an Italian and Mediterranean twist.
Ingredients
- 1 cup Baba Ganoush
- 1 cup sun-dried tomatoes, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoon fresh basil, chiffonade
- 5 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoon balsamic glaze
- 1 baguette
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
- salt to taste
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the finely chopped sun-dried tomatoes, minced garlic, chopped fresh basil, and 3 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil. Season the mixture with salt and pepper.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the baguette diagonally into ½ thick pieces and place it over a baking sheet in a baking dish. Brush extra-virgin olive oil on both sides of the slices.
- Toast the slices in the oven for about 5-7 minutes, or until they become slightly crispy and golden brown. Turn over the slices half way through.
- After the slices have been taken out of the oven, spread a thin layer of the baba ganoush over one side of the sliced baguette and top the baba ganoush with a spoonful of the sun-dried tomato bruschetta topping.
- Drizzle with some balsamic glaze and these crispy baba ganoush bruschetta are ready to be served.
