Roasted Grapes & Burrata
FAQ
Can I use green grapes?
You can, but red grapes are sweeter and give a better contrast with the burrata.
Can I roast the grapes ahead of time?
Yes, but wait to assemble until serving so the burrata stays fresh. The grapes will be warm right out of the oven, or room temp if made ahead.
What can I serve this with?
Crusty bread, crostini, or crackers all work. Even spooned over grilled chicken or pork, it’s unreal.
What kind of bread should I serve it with?
Crusty baguette slices, crostini, or crackers all work. Pick something sturdy that can scoop up the grapes and burrata.
Chef’s Tips
- Use seedless red grapes for the best sweetness and texture
- Don’t skip tearing into the burrata, letting that creamy center spill out makes the whole dish
- Serve immediately while the grapes are still warm for the best flavour.
Roasted Grapes & Burrata
Roasted grapes and burrata might sound fancy, but it’s one of the easiest appetizers you can make. The grapes get soft and lightly caramelized in the oven, the burrata stays rich, creamy, and fresh, and it all just comes together. Scoop it up with some crusty bread and it’ll be gone before you know it.

- 1 tbsp olive oil plus more for drizzling

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

Notes
Storage: Store leftover grapes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Burrata is best enjoyed fresh.
Herb Options: Thyme and rosemary work great, but basil or mint add a fresher twist.
Extra Touch: A drizzle of honey or a pinch of chili flakes takes this in a slightly sweeter or spicy direction.
