Make summertime entertaining easy and beautiful with these blackberry fig crostini. Pick up those fresh seasonal fruit and put them to good use, it doesn’t get sweeter than this. (Jump to Recipe)
I’m one of those people who have a hard time buying berries in the winter, just because I know they’re not going to be as sweet as the summertime ones. I wait almost all year to buy the plump, juicy berries and when I do, they get their most deserved spotlight, like they should.
These blackberry fig crostini are made with a sliced toasted baguette, goat cheese as the base, topped with sliced figs and blackberries, and last drizzled with sweet honey and thyme.
