Roasted grape and Brie crostini

Tracy Sellers, host of California Bountiful TV

A perfect pairing of sweet and salty highlights this simple appetizer. It's a unique way to enjoy California grapes, and one of the recipes California Bountiful TV host Tracy Sellers shares with Sac & Co viewers on June 16, 2016.

Ingredients

2 cups red seedless grapes
2 tsp. olive oil, divided
1 French baguette, cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices
4 to 6 oz. (1/2 of a round) Brie cheese, thinly sliced
Honey, for drizzling
Coarse sea salt, for sprinkling

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place grapes on a nonstick baking sheet and drizzle with 1 tsp. olive oil. Toss to coat grapes evenly and roast for about 15 minutes or until grapes begin to look like they might burst and shrivel a bit. Set grapes aside to cool. Keep oven temperature.

Place bread on a separate baking sheet and brush each half with remaining 1 tsp. olive oil. Top each with Brie cheese slices and bake for 10 minutes. Turn oven to broil and broil for 30 to 45 seconds until cheese melts and bubbles. Add grapes on top of cheese and drizzle honey all over. Sprinkle with a bit of sea salt. Cut bread into wedges and serve.
