5 from 2 votes

Description

Make this deliciously creamy, sweet crostini all summer long, no matter whether you’re making brunch for 1 or entertaining 10 friends.

Ingredients
  

For the Balsamic Roasted Strawberries

  • 32 ounces whole strawberries hulled
  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tbsp raw honey
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

For the Crostini

  • 1 large baguette cut into even slices
  • 2 4-ounce burrata balls drained
  • Extra-virgin olive oil to taste
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • Balsamic vinegar (optional) to taste
  • Fresh basil for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
  • Place the strawberries on a rimmed baking sheet, then add the balsamic vinegar, honey, and salt and pepper. Toss until evenly coated. Bake for about 20 minutes, turning half way through, or until dark and soft, then remove from the oven and toss again. Depending on strawberry size, you may need to roast longer—mine were huge, so I gave them more time (see this tutorial for more tips).
  • Set the oven to broil.
  • On a separate baking sheet, lay out the baguette slices and drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper on both sides. Broil until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
  • Place the burrata balls in a small serving bowl and cut an “X” shape on the top of each ball. Drizzle generously with olive oil and balsamic, if using, and season with salt and pepper. Spoon the roasted strawberries into the bowl around the burrata, then top with basil leaves.
  • Serve family-style with the prepared crostini on the side, and enjoy!
