Description
Crunchy toasted bread paired with a blend of honey and goat cheese is the perfect match for seasonal fresh fruit. Easiest appetizer ever.
Ingredients
- 1 French baguette (18 inches), cut into 3/4-inch slices
- 8 ounces creamy goat cheese
- 2 Tablespoons honey, plus more for drizzling
- 1 cup sliced fruit (strawberries, blackberries, peaches)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Place bread slices on a baking sheet. Bake 10 -12 minutes or until lightly toasted. (This is the ONLY cooking you’ll do! Woohoo!)
- Meanwhile, mix the goat cheese and honey together until relatively smooth. If it’s a little crumbly, that’s ok. Spread the goat cheese mixture on the toasted bread. Top with fruit.
- Before serving, drizzle each crostini with honey. Keep leftovers covered tightly in the refrigerator for a couple days.
Notes
- Make Ahead Instructions: Prepare recipe through step 2, only do not top with fruit. Cover the goat cheese-topped bread slices tightly and store in the refrigerator for up to 1 day or for up to 8-10 hours at room temperature. Then top with fruit and honey. So, prep in the morning and finish in the evening! So easy.
