Hi, friends! How’s your week treating you so far? Excited about Friday? If you say “no”, I might doubt our friendship.
But I will be honest with you. I don’t have too many words to say today. Not because I’m speechless when it comes to this delicious Roasted Grape Bruschetta. I’ve temporarily lost my inspiration (and words). No biggie. Happens every now and then.
Usually, when I don’t have much to say, I use my secret weapon. Lavender. Perhaps, not that secret. You know me joking around this topic. But today it’s just blank. Ben cannot talk about lavender? Do you see the problem now?
Roasted Grape Bruschetta
Roasted Grape Bruschetta? Nothing much to say here. It’s just a lovely, easy, and delicious recipe which doesn’t require any fancy ingredients. You can pick goat cheese over cream cheese, though. Besides, you can sprinkle the crostini with some nuts like almonds.
And if you’ve never made roasted grapes, you should definitely give it a try. That’s a great way to spruce up a salad or appetizer like in this Roasted Grapes, Feta, and Hazelnut Salad.
That’s basically everything I’d love to share with you today. Please send me your good vibes which will help to gain my inspiration back. If this doesn’t help me, well, I will obviously need to grab my lavender from the pantry.
I hope you like this Roasted Grape Bruschetta, and you will give it a try shortly. If you make it, let me know in this post or send me an Instagram message or share your photos adding the hashtag #havocinthekitchen.
Cheers!

Ingredients
1 cup (150 gr.) seedless grapes
1 tbsp. (14 ml.) olive oil
salt and black pepper, to taste
1 tsp. dried herbs such as Italian seasonings
7-9 slices of baguette or other bread
3-4 tbsp. (45-60 gr.) cream cheese
Directions
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees C (400 degrees F).
- Place the grapes in a small baking dish, drizzle with the oil, and season with the salt, pepper, and herbs. Roast for about 15-20 minutes, stirring once. Remove from oven and let cool a little (I like serve crostini with warm topping, but it can be completely cool as well.)
- Toast the baguette on a dry skillet or in a toaster as desired.
- Spread the cheese over the warm baguette and top with some roasted grapes. Enjoy immediately!
Hi – I’m Ben, a blogger, recipe developer, and food photographer. I’m glad you’re here! I hope you will enjoy hundreds of delicious recipes and a pinch of havoc in the kitchen.
Well, it’s Monday and I’m already VERY excited for Friday. So I guess we can keep being friends, huh? Lucky you! hahaha. :) I love roasted grapes, but for some reason I don’t make them too often. Well, mostly because I always eat the entire bag of grapes before I get to roast them. This crostini is beautiful, Ben!! LOVE the roasted grape and cream cheese combo! These bad boys look dangerously delicious! Cheers!

Same happens to me when I buy a bag of grapes. So we should buy two bags each time we wanna roast some grapes:)

I love roasted grapes! They are such an underappreciated ingredient, and I love how you kept this recipe simple to really highlight the roasted grapes. This sounds like a perfect appetizer for a summer party! Summer is coming, right? I hear that it might be…haha. Love these crostini, Ben!

Roasted grapes are delish! These would make the perfect appetizer for any gathering or dinner party! Or even just as a snack!
You’re right, Sonali! Thank you.
You know I will give this one a go. You sold me!
I like to roast cranberries with vegetables, but these grapes sound so good Ben. I love the oregano add and what could not be good about a delicious crostini like this one!
