2 tbsp balsamic vinegar

1 tbsp honey or maple syrup

8 oz Brie cheese, sliced

Fresh rosemary or thyme, for garnish

Directions

Prepare Crostini: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Brush baguette slices with olive oil and arrange on a baking sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes until golden and crisp.

Make Balsamic Roasted Cranberries: In a bowl, mix cranberries, balsamic vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper. Spread on a lined baking sheet and roast for 10-12 minutes until cranberries are soft and caramelized.

Assemble Crostini: Place a slice of Brie on each crostini. Spoon balsamic-roasted cranberries over the Brie. Return to the oven for 3-5 minutes to melt the Brie.

Finish & Serve: Garnish with fresh rosemary or thyme. Serve warm for a sweet, tangy, and creamy bite.
