I had this today for the very first time and it was fabulous with the following addition: Butter bread then sprinkle with cinnamon-sugar mixture. Toast then spread with cream cheese mixed with confectioner sugar. Then add strawberries. TO DIE FOR.
I make a strawberry bruschetta except I toast a nutty hearty bread and spread with a mascarpone cheese flavored with honey and they put strawberries on top with a sprig of mint. They are always a hit and delicious and pretty! Bernadette from Hamilton NJ
Toasted the bread and then put the strawberries on top. Also I used brown sugar instead of white and a bit of fresh ground black pepper. I also added a splash of balsamic vinegar to the mix which helps to pull out the natural sweetness from the strawberries.
I thought this was OK... to me it tasted a lot like buttered toast with whole fruit on top rather than jam. I mixed up some cream cheese sugar and cinnamon and spread it on the bread and toasted it at the same time too. I put the strawberries and sugar on these slices too. I liked those slices better but overall the recipe's a fun sweet snack.
I do a modified version of this recipe which is a big hit. Use zucchini bread instead of baguette (biscotti is also a good substitute) and add other fruits to the strawberries. I use white peaches and blackberries. Great for brunch.
VERY yummy! Thanks for the recipe it helps make my breakfasts not so mundane.
I absolutely love this recipe. So simply so fresh so easy. Since my broiler isn't working properly I popped the baguettes into the toaster & used a hand torch to caramelize the sugar. I had this delicious things for 3 days straight for breakfast or lunch and sometimes for both.
this recipe was ok.... i use a mixture of mango and mandarin oranges instead... i was not very fond of hot fruits.. i think if i were to make this recipe again.. i would only put the baguette under the broiler not the fruits.. the fruits were better when they were cold..
Toasted a butered cinnamon-raisin bread spred a layer of sweetened cream cheese (added Chambord for a nice raspberry undertone) and topped with sliced strawberries. Since the berries were in season they didn't need sugar. This was delicious with the extra layer of cream cheese...simply delicious!
