The combination of chocolate hazelnut spread and fresh berries is a flavor explosion on a crispy slice of toasted baguette.
Our Favorite New Sweet Treat
These hand-held bruschetta bites are the perfect blend of sweet, fresh, and a little savory. They are sweet enough to curve that sweet tooth but savory enough to satisfy. These are perfect for breakfast, brunch, a holiday sweet appetizer, or dessert.
A little bit of history: Hazelnut spread is made from roasted hazelnuts and cocoa – what’s not to love? And no wonder it’s Italy’s version of peanut butter.

Krazy Kitchen Mom Tips
- The salt and mint are the finishing touches on this bruschetta….don’t leave them out.
- You can make the toasted baguette slices a day or 2 in advance. Store them in the pantry or counter in a zip-top bag.
