Ingredients
1/2 cup walnuts, roughly chopped (60 g)
8 ounces soft goat cheese (228 g)
2 tablespoons honey (42 ml)
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary, plus more for garnish
1 teaspoon minced fresh thyme, plus more for garnish
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1/2 cup fig preserves (160 g)
24 crostini (homemade or store-bought)
Instructions
- Toast the walnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2–3 minutes until fragrant, then let cool.
- In a bowl, mix goat cheese with honey, olive oil, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.
- Spread a generous layer of the goat cheese mixture onto each crostini.
- Top each with a spoonful of fig preserves.
- Sprinkle with toasted walnuts.
- Finish with extra rosemary and thyme for garnish, then serve immediately.
Notes
Assemble crostini just before serving to keep the bread crisp.
Goat cheese mixture can be made up to 3 days ahead and stored refrigerated.
Swap fig preserves for apricot, cherry, or raspberry jam if preferred.
