White Bean Crostini
Report
Crostini are fun, bite-sized appetizers made of little slices of toasted baguette and topped with whatever your heart desires. For this crostini recipe, I used a healthy white bean topping drizzled with balsamic.

Ingredients
- 2 cups canned Cannelini or Northern Beans (drained and rinsed)
- 8 1/2 inch piece of baguette ( (4 oz total) sliced into 1/4" thin slices)
- 2 tbsp olive oil (extra virgin)
- 1 garlic clove
- 4 tbsp water
- Olive oil spray
- 1 tbsp fresh thyme
- extra fresh thyme for garnish
- 1 clove garlic
- balsamic vinegar (for drizzling)
- kosher salt (and fresh pepper)
Instructions
- Cut the bread into 1/4" thin slices.
- You can toast these in the oven with a little olive oil spray at 400F turning once until toasted or grill them with a light spray of olive oil until golden.
- Once the bread is toasted, lightly rub it with a garlic clove cut in half. Now your bread is ready to top.
- Pureé in a small blender or magic bullet all the ingredients for the white bean spread. If it's too dry you can add a little more water.
- Top each piece with 2 teaspoons of the white bean puree and garnish with fresh thyme.
- Drizzle with a touch of balsamic right before serving.
