Ingredients

  • 12 slices of baguette
  • olive oil spray
  • salt
  • 12 quail eggs
  • 12 cherry or grape tomatoes
  • 12 small balls of fresh mozzarella
  • 1/4 cup chopped Roasted Salted Blue Diamond Almonds
  • arugula for garnishing

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 F.
  • Place baguette slices on a baking sheet and lightly spray with olive oil. Season with salt. Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden. Let them cool for 10 minutes at room temperature.
  • Fry the quail eggs in a non-stick pan over medium heat, cook for 2-3 minutes. (I prefer runny yolk and it takes 3 minutes to cook. If you'd like your egg yolk hard, cook for a longer time or cover with a lid to make sure it is cooked through).
  • To assemble the crostini: Place 1 egg over each slice of bread. Top with tomatoes, mozzarella and arugula. Sprinkle some chopped almonds on top. Serve.
