Garlic & Herb Goat Cheese Spread
Ingredients
- 1 4 oz garlic & herb goat cheese log from The Humble Goat softened
- 1 baguette sliced into ½-inch rounds (8 slices)
- 3 cloves garlic finely minced
- 3 tbsp olive oil plus more for brushing
- 1½ tbsp honey or to taste
- Small handful of fresh herbs: microgreens baby basil, or thyme
- Pinch of sea salt optional
Instructions
Make the Crostini
- Preheat your oven to 375°F.
- Arrange baguette slices on a baking sheet and brush lightly with olive oil.
- Toast for 8–10 minutes, flipping once, until golden and crisp.
Crisp the Garlic
- In a small pan, heat 3 tbsp olive oil over medium-low.
- Add the minced garlic and sauté, stirring often, until golden brown and crispy — about 2–3 minutes.
- Use a slotted spoon to transfer garlic to a paper towel to drain. (Reserve the garlic-infused oil if you like.)
Assemble the Crostini
- Spread a thick layer of the garlic & herb goat cheese over each crostini.
- Drizzle lightly with honey and olive oil.
- Sprinkle a pinch of the crispy garlic on top of each.
- Garnish with microgreens, small basil leaves, or thyme
Notes
Serve immediately while the toast is still slightly warm. These are great for brunch spreads, wine and cheese nights, or as a quick party appetizer.
