For a sweet twist on a classic, make Summer Berry Dessert Bruschetta. Toasted buttery brioche is dolloped with a vanilla marscapone cream and topped with sweet summer berries for a chic and easy dessert!
I have a fabulously easy dessert to share with you today that you are going to love – Summer Berry Dessert Bruschetta.
You can’t walk into the market without seeing such amazing sales on fresh summer berries. I’m guilty of often adding a pint (or three) to my cart so finding innovative ways to use up these lovelies are always an adventure. Blueberries and blackberries are my ultimate favorites – something about that sweet tart flavor I can’t resist.
When I’m entertaining, one recipe that is always a success with friends and family is bruschetta. I decided to take it on a sweet turn and give it a bit of a summer twist. You can always change it up to use whatever fruit you have on hand – it would be fabulous with some roasted cherries (or boozy cherries), sweet grilled plums, summer strawberries – you name it.
This dessert is so easy to put together – the only time you heat the oven is essentially to toast the brioche. You could also lightly spray the brioche with some canola oil and throw it on a grill for a smoky twist. The buttery brioche gets golden quick so make sure you keep an eye on it. I love using marscapone for desserts – it’s beyond creamy, but can be a bit rich. I cut some of the richness with some Greek yogurt and added a touch of sugar and vanilla. The berries macerate in the sugar and lemon so no cooking is needed. Just a quick mash with a fork and you have the perfect dessert bruschetta topping!
My guests adored these two bite dessert treats and it had just enough sweetness to satisfy a sweet tooth without being too heavy – just perfect for summer. When you are looking for something that is so easy to make in a hot minute, these lovelies will be on your dessert table in no time!
Make these Summer Berry Dessert Bruschetta for your next summer soiree – but make sure to save one (or two) for yourself because they will go quick!
