Creamy Boursin Bruschetta
Enjoy crunchy baguette slices topped with creamy Boursin cheese, tomato, and onion, and a drizzle of tangy balsamic reduction.
Equipment
Ingredients
- Baguette sliced into ½" rounds
- 10 ounces Garlic and Fine Herbs Boursin Cheese (two containers)
- 1 Roma Tomato finely diced
- ½ cup Shredded Mozzarella
- ¼ cup Fresh Basil chopped
- 2 tablespoons Minced Red Onion
- 2 tablespoons Balsamic Reduction or Glaze
- Salt to taste
- Black Pepper to taste
- Olive Oil
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350℉. Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
- Brush both sides of each baguette slice with olive oil. Arrange in a single layer on the baking sheet. Bake for 5 minutes then set aside to cool.
- In a bowl, combine Boursin, tomatoes, mozzarella, basil, and red onion. Blend until tomatoes and onions are in tiny pieces and well blended into the mixture.
- Add the Boursin mixture to a piping bag with a star tip. Pipe the mixture onto each toasted bread slice. If you do not have an icing bag/star tip, simply spread the Boursin onto each bread slice. Use a fork to make squiggly lines on top of the Boursin. This will let the edges get golden as they bake.
- Place the baking pan back in the oven for 12-16 minutes until the edges of the Boursin are golden brown. Be sure to watch the slices of baguette so that they don't burn. Drizzle each bruschetta with balsamic reduction or glaze.
