Easy and delicious holiday crostinis with garlic confit, St. Albans creamy cheese and pomegranates.

These Rosemary Garlic Confit Crostinis with Creamy Cheese & Pomegranate are a beautiful blend of richness and brightness. The garlic confit is slow-roasted with rosemary in the oven until golden and mellow, creating a deeply aromatic, set-it-and-forget-it base. Once the cloves are soft and caramelized, they’re ready to be layered over toasty crostinis with creamy St. Albans cheese.
The warmth of the roasted garlic and rosemary pairs perfectly with the luxurious melted cheese, while bursts of pomegranate add a fresh, tart pop to balance each bite. These crostinis are festive and flavorful—ideal for holiday gatherings, cozy dinners, or any time you want to bring a little elegance to the table.
