Roasted Metis^{® Crostini}

Ingredients:

• 8 Metis^® – this recipe uses Oxy Solar
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tbsp syrup (e.g. fruit, maple or vegan honey)
• Salt
• 1 small fresh baguette, sliced into rounds
• 150g vegan cream cheese
• 4 sprigs fresh mint
• Cracked black pepper
• Crushed pistachios
• Extra syrup

Method:

Preheat the oven to 160Fan/180°C and line a large baking tray with parchment paper.

Slice the Metis^® fruit in half, remove the stone and cut each half into 4 wedges. Toss the fruit in the olive oil and syrup with a pinch of salt. Roast in the oven for 15-20 minutes until tender but holding their shape.

Toast the bread rounds under the grill, in the oven or toaster for a few minutes until golden and crisp to make the crostini.

Spread each crostini with some vegan cream cheese, top with a few wedges of roasted Metis^® and finish with a few mint leaves and cracked black pepper. Spoon over some of the roasted Metis^® juices, too. Sprinkle with some crushed pistachios and a drizzle of syrup, if desired.
