Equipment

  • heavy-bottom saucepan
  • Oven

Ingredients
  

  • 1 French baguette French baguette
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 package quality Prosciutto
  • 1 round Brie cheese
  • 1 jar McEwan's Cranberry Sauce
  • ¼ cup chopped walnuts toasted (optional)
  • 1 bottle McEwan's Barrel Aged Balsamic Vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar

Instructions
 

To make balsamic glaze

  • Place one cup of McEwan's Balsamic Vinegar along with brown sugar in a heavy-bottom saucepan over low heat. Simmer, stirring frequently, until vinegar is thickened or the back of a spoon is coated. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Sauce will thicken as it cools.

To assemble crostini

  • Cut baguette into one-third inch slices, on a bias. Lightly coat with olive oil and bake for eight minutes at 375 degrees F until lightly toasted.
  • Slice brie into thin strips and place on bread. Top with prosciutto and a generous teaspoon of McEwan's Cranberry sauce. Sprinkle chopped walnuts, if using, and drizzle balsamic glaze over assembled crostini. Embellish with mint leaves or arugula.
  • Serve immediately.
