Fava Bean, Burrata, and Mint Crostini is fresh, creamy fava bean hummus served with toasted bread and Burrata cheese. It's the perfect spring appetizer!
Place the beans in the bowl of a food processor and puree until smooth. Add the lemon juice, mint, salt and pepper.
With the processor on low, add the oil through the chute and process until combined. Taste and correct the seasoning.
Assemble the crostini:
Place about a tablespoon of the hummus on each slice of bread followed by a small slice of Burrata, a bit more puree or cooked fava beans and freshly chopped mint.
Serve and enjoy!
Notes
Prep time above includes shelling and cooking the fava beans.
The toasted baguette may be made in advance and stored in an air tight container until ready to serve.
Fava bean hummus is also delicious as a spread for wraps or a dip for crackers or veggies.
