Ingredients

4 oz plain goat cheese
1 tablespoon whipping cream
10 large mint leaves
3-4 oz fresh blackberries

Crostini

1 fresh long baguette
olive oil, salt & pepper

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the baguette into ½-inch thick pieces and arrange them on a baking sheet. Put each slice lightly with olive oil.
Bake for 8–10 minutes, or until golden and crisp. Let cool slightly.
In a bowl, combine goat cheese and a splash of cream or milk. Whip until smooth and creamy using a hand mixer or food processor.
Spread the whipped goat cheese generously on each crostini. Top with fresh blackberries, gently pressing them into the cheese.
Drizzle with honey and sprinkle with chopped fresh thyme or mint, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

*I suggest preparing this crostini 1-3 hours in advance. More than that, and the bread may go stale.

Crostini Tips

☑️ Use a fresh baguette that is no wider than 3".

☑️ Make sure to cut your crostini thin but not too thin.

☑️ Season the bread with olive oil, salt and pepper. Garlic is optional.

☑️ Toast the bread until it's golden brown, not burnt.
