A perfect mix of creamy, salty and sweet, but with a little kick, this elegant Prosciutto & Brie Toast can be ready in minutes!
If you’ve been following me for a little while you may have noticed my semi-recent obsession with prosciutto. I’ve always liked it, but for some reason this summer our love affair has gone to the next level. I’ve taken to eating prosciutto and brie almost every day for lunch – a winning combination that I usually pair with some juicy grapes and some mixed nuts for a little adult snack plate. But of course, sometimes I get a little tired of the same old thing and wanted to get a little creative with my prosciutto snacking. Enter: the Prosciutto and Brie Toast!
Why You’ll Love This Brie Appetizer
If you’re looking for a menu item that feels elevated but takes almost no time to make, this Prosciutto & Brie Toast with Hot Honey is it. With just a handful of ingredients, you get the perfect balance of flavors — melty, creamy brie, salty prosciutto, and a drizzle of sweet heat from homemade hot honey. It’s a recipe that works just as well for an afternoon snack at home as it does as a chic appetizer at your next gathering. Best of all, it comes together in under 10 minutes!
Ingredients for Prosciutto and Brie Toast
- Bread: Choose a slice of hearty, crusty bread for the best base. I used Italian bread for this particular recipe, but sourdough or a French baguette would work well too.
- Brie: A soft and creamy brie cheese will melt beautifully onto your toast and it’s nutty flavor will pair perfectly with the other ingredients.
- Prosciutto: A few slices of thin, salty prosciutto adds delicious flavor and texture. I usually grab mine at Aldi for its affordable price, but you could also spring for a higher-quality deli cut.
- Hot Honey: This easy hot honey can be made by adding a sprinkle of cayenne pepper and red pepper. Feel free to add as much or as little as you like based on your beat preference.
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Assemble Toast: Layer bread with slices of brie, followed by prosciutto.
- Bake: Bake for about 5 minutes at 350°F until melty and golden.
- Make Hot Honey: Make hot honey by adding a little bit of cayenne pepper and red pepper flakes to a tablespoon of honey and stir to combine. Voilà – you have hot honey!
- Finish & Serve: Drizzle toast generously with hot honey and serve immediately.
