Best 8 Prosciutto Sage Crostini Recipes

CROSTINI ALLA ROMANA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Place the slices of ciabatta on a parchment lined baking sheet. Bake until crisp and golden around the edges, about 8 minutes. Remove the bread from the oven. Place the prosciutto slices and mozzarella on the crostini toast and return to the oven to melt the cheese, about 8 more minutes.
• Meanwhile combine the butter and the sage leaves in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook until the butter is melted and starting to brown in spots and the sage leaves are crisp, about 5 minutes. Add the salt and pepper.
• Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Transfer the crostini to a serving plate. Drizzle the crostini with the sage butter and serve immediately.

WHITE BEAN AND PROSCIUTTO CROSTINI WITH SAGE

Steps:

• In the bowl of a food processor combine the 3 smashed garlic cloves, prosciutto, crushed red pepper, and 3 cans of beans. Add 1/4 cup olive oil and puree until smooth. If the mixture seems too thick add more olive oil; the mixture should be fairly loose. Taste to see if the mixture needs salt (it probably will). Add the remaining can of beans and pulse to combine (the mixture should be a little bit coarse). Taste again to see if it needs salt. It should be creamy and a little chunky and really well flavored. Remove from the food processor to a large bowl and reserve at room temperature.
• Preheat a grill pan over medium heat.
• Grill the baguette slices on both sides on the preheated grill pan. When the bread looks slightly charred and is crispy remove them and rub each crostini with the raw garlic cloves.
• Top each toast with a big schmear of the bean puree and a drizzle of olive oil. Garnish with sage and arrange on serving platters to serve. Bravissimo!

PROSCIUTTO & SAGE CROSTINI

Steps:

• Slice bread on the diagonal (eg. ///) approximately ½" thick. Place sliced bread in an even layer on a baking sheet.
• Brown ¼ cup of butter in a pan - when putting the butter in the pan add sage leaves (the number of bread slices you have), add salt and pepper to taste while allowing all ingredients to brown together in the butter. Remember, the prosciutto is a cured ham, thus there is salt already in the meat, do not add too much into your butter.
• Place one slice of prosciutto on each slice of bread - making sure the prosciutto is not hanging over a lot on the bread (kind of clump it, making little waves in the meat).
• Slice the mozzarella in ¼" thick slices (the number of bread slices you have), and place on top of the prosciutto.
• At 350°, bake the bread in the oven until the mozzarella is melted and just barely turning golden.
• Take the bread out of the oven, and spoon your browned butter over top of each slice of bread, don't over use the butter or everything will be mushy.
• Place one sage leave on top of each slice, and now you're ready to serve!
