Equipment

  • Toaster or Oven

Method
 

  1. Preheat your toaster or oven to 400°F (200°C). Toast thick slices of sourdough bread until golden brown and crisp, about 4-6 minutes.
  2. Once toasted, let the sourdough cool for a minute and spread a layer of fig jam over each piece for even coverage.
  3. Layer thin slices of prosciutto on top of the fig jam, arranging them flat or gently folded.
  4. Slice slightly softened brie cheese and place evenly over the prosciutto, letting it sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
  5. Sprinkle fresh arugula over the brie for color and a peppery bite, distributing it evenly.
  6. Slice ripe fresh figs and layer them on top of the arugula for sweetness and visual appeal.
  7. Drizzle olive oil over the assembled sandwich and sprinkle with cracked black pepper or balsamic glaze.
  8. Cut each sandwich into halves or quarters for an elegant display on a wooden board or platter.
