Pomegranate Pumpkin Crostini

November 25, 2015 By Shannah Coe 6 Comments

Pumpkin is perfect for the holidays when you make pumpkin crostini studded with pomegranate seeds and drizzled with honey! This is the perfect appetizer!

So, remember the other day when we talked about how to cut a pumpkin? Well, there is a reason you need to know how to do that. That reason is because you HAVE to make this Pomegranate Pumpkin Crostini. Seriously…it is like beyond amazing and will blow away any other appetizers on the table.

This crostini the perfect combination of a few simple ingredients that work together to create a ridiculously good dish. It is the perfect way to take pumpkin beyond fall and into the holidays too. I love seeing the pomegranate arils mixed in with roasted pumpkin for the perfect touch of red.

It’s pretty simple when it comes to how to make crostini. A crostini is small pieces of toasted bread that is topped with a variety of different meats, veggies, cheese, and herbs. The best thing about a crostini is that there is not one way to make it!

But, the moment one person tries it, word will spread and it will disappear from your table! I can’t wait to make it for our annual holiday party and hear what everyone thinks!
