6 large ripe figs
12 thin sliced baguette

Position the oiled rack 4-6 inches above the fire. Brush baguette slices with the olive oil and place on grill to
toast for about 2 minutes on each side.
Remove and place on platter. Meanwhile, cut each fig in half and place on grill cut side down,

lightly melted put the composed Crostini back on the grill, over indirect
