Roasted Grape Ricotta Crostini with Rosemary and Pinenuts
Roasted Grape Ricotta Crostini with Rosemary and Pinenuts
1 pound seedless grapes
3 tsp. olive oil
Sea salt
Freshly ground pepper
1/2 lemon
2 rosemary sprigs
Bread of choice (I used a sourdough boule, toasted and sliced)
1/2 C. fresh ricotta
1/4 C. pine nuts toasted
Good-quality honey
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. In a shallow 8 x 8 baking dish, mix together the grapes, olive oil, sea salt, pepper, juice from 1/2 lemon and rosemary. Transfer to the oven for 10-12 minutes and until the skins are slightly puckered. Remove and set aside. To assemble the crostinis, smear each toasted bread slice with about 2 to 3 tsp. of ricotta. Spoon warm grapes onto each piece of toast, sprinkle pine nuts atop and finish with a drizzle of honey.
