-
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
-
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.
