Pesto Pita Toasts Recipes

Steps:

• Split pita bread into two rounds. Spread with pesto and sprinkle with cheese. Cut each into six wedges. Place on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 350° for 10-12 minutes or until crisp. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Turn the oven to its broiler setting and position a rack in the middle of the oven.
• Add the pesto and red pepper flakes to a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Allow to heat for 1 minute. Crack the eggs into the pesto and cook to your liking, 4 to 7 minutes.
• Meanwhile, spread the sourdough with the garlic mayonnaise. Top with the cheese, then broil until toasted and the cheese has melted, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Top the toasted bread with the sliced tomato and basil leaves. Top with the eggs, then sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Cut pita rounds into 6 triangles. Split triangles in half. Brush the rough side of triangles with olive oil. Combine sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle 1/2 tablespoon cinnamon sugar on each triangle.
• Place on baking sheet. Bake for 5 to 7 minutes in a 350 degree oven until crisp.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375.
• Place bread on ungreased sheet.
• Spread each slice with a scant tbsp of pesto.
• Top with tomato and sprinkle with cheese.
• Bake about 8 minutes or til hot and cheese is melted.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375° F.
• Halve pitas horizontally to form 8 rounds and lightly brush rough sides with oil. Season pitas with salt and cut each round into 6 wedges.
• Arrange wedges in one layer on 2 baking sheets and bake in upper and lower thirds of oven, switching position of sheets halfway through baking, 10 to 15 minutes, or until golden and crisp. Cool toasts. Toasts may be made 1 day ahead and kept in an airtight container at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat oven on broiler setting. Arrange bread slices in a single layer on a cookie sheet. Place under broiler for 5 to 8 minutes, or until lightly toasted on one side. Watch carefully to ensure they don't burn. Remove from oven, and flip bread slices so that the toasted side is on the bottom.
• Set the oven temperature for 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, pesto, garlic, Parmesan and salt. Spread evenly over untoasted sides of bread slices.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 6 to 8 minutes. Set the oven to broil, and place the rounds under the broiler just until they begin to bubble and turn golden. Let cool slightly before serving.
