Best Avocado Feta Crostini Italian Toast Bruschetta Recipes

AVOCADO BRUSCHETTA WITH FETA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Brush olive oil onto both sides of baguette rounds, salt and pepper to taste and place on foil-lined baking sheet. Toast in oven approximately 8-10 minutes, or until desired crispiness.
• While the bread is toasting, in a medium-size bowl, combine avocado, tomatoes, basil, feta and salt and pepper to taste. Stir to combine.
• Once crostinis are toasted, removed from oven. Evenly distribute the avo-tomato mixture on top of each crositni round and serve.

AVOCADO, FETA AND PANCETTA BRUSCHETTA

Steps:

• Prepare all ingredients just before planning to eat.
• In a medium sized bowl combine the feta cheese, avocado, rocket, basil, pine nuts and 2 tablespoons olive oil. Add an extra tablespoon of olive oil to further moisten this mixture if preferred.
• Saute the bacon or pancetta in a little oil until crisp, then chop finely and add to the feta cheese/avocado mixture.
• Set topping mixture aside while preparing the bread.
• Toast the bread over hot coals (preferably), on the bbq or under the oven grill/broiler, until crusty and golden brown on the outside, but warm and soft inside. Keep an eye on it as it can suddenly burn!
• While the toast is still piping hot, rub one side of each slice with the cut side of a garlic clove, then quickly brush each slice with a tablespoon of olive oil.
• Spoon the topping mixture on to the toasted bread, and season with freshly cracked black pepper - depending on the saltiness of the feta and bacon you use, you probably won't need to season with salt.
• Serve immediately.

ROASTED TOMATO, AVOCADO, AND FRESH MOZZARELLA CROSTINI

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Arrange tomato slices on the baking sheet and top with about 3 tablespoons olive oil, sea salt, and pepper.
• Roast in the preheated oven until tomatoes are wilted, wrinkly, and scorched in some places, 25 to 30 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Place bread slices in the skillet and cook until crisp and golden in parts, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
• Remove bread from skillet and rub garlic onto each slice; sprinkle sea salt over bread.
• Layer mozzarella cheese on the toasted bread and top with avocado slices. Sprinkle sea salt over avocado and squeeze lemon over it. Top with roasted tomatoes and dill. Drizzle remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil over crostini and sprinkle with flaked salt.
