Today I’d like to show you how to make two kinds of dessert bruschetta with Camembert cheese. This elegant twist on bruschetta is a perfect way to finish off a delicious lunch or dinner. The base is the same for both versions — toasted ciabatta and creamy Camembert — but each one features a different sweet topping.
Ingredients:
- Ciabatta (or French baguette)
- Camembert cheese or brie cheese – 1 pc. (125 g)
- Cherries – 1 cup
- Sugar – 1.5 tbsp.
- Balsamic vinegar – 3 tbsp.
- Balsamic sauce
- Vanilla extract – pinch
- Raspberries
- Walnuts
- Honey
How to make it
Slice the ciabatta into pieces about 1–1.5 cm thick. Toast the bread in a dry skillet or on the grill. It should be crisp on the outside and soft on the inside.
Cut Camembert cheese into thin slices.
Bruschetta with camembert and cherry
To make this bruschetta, you’ll need balsamic cherries. I usually prepare a small jar in advance and keep it in the refrigerator. They’re incredibly versatile and pair well with many dishes — you can serve them with meat, cheese, French toast, or even ice cream.
Wash the cherries and remove the pits. In a saucepan, combine the cherries, sugar, balsamic vinegar, and vanilla extract. Place the pan over low heat and stir constantly until the mixture comes to a gentle boil and the sugar is completely dissolved. Remove the pan from the heat. If you prefer a thicker consistency, you can stir in a little cornstarch at the end. Allow the cherry sauce to cool completely before using.
Top each slice of ciabatta with Camembert cheese and cherries. Drizzle gently with the balsamic sauce.

Bruschetta with raspberries and walnuts
Place Camembert cheese on a slice of warm ciabatta. Top with fresh raspberries and a sprinkle of walnuts. Drizzle with honey to finish.
A quick, delicious, and visually impressive snack is ready to enjoy!
