Ingredients

  • 1 cup vegetable broth
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 2-3 sprigs fresh mint
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Olive oil for drizzling
  • 4 slices prosciutto
  • 1/2 baguette cut into 1/2" slices
  • Red pepper flakes for garnish

Instructions

  • Heat the broth in a pot over medium heat. Once boiling, add the peas and cook until tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Drain the peas in a fine mesh sieve, reserving a tablespoon of the cooking liquid. Place the peas in a mini chopper or food processor. Add a few mint leaves and salt. Puree until smooth. If you need to, add a little bit of cooking liquid, just enough to make the puree smooth.
  • Toast the baguette slices in the oven for about 10 minutes at 400 degrees F, or in the air fryer for 3-4 minutes. Drizzle the crostini with olive oil.
  • Top each crostini with pea puree. Top each with a small roll of prosciutto, a mint leaf, and red pepper flakes.
