Baked Goat Cheese with Honey

You can keep goat cheese and bread slices in the freezer and always have an impressive dish on hand.  Quantities are not particularity important, just don’t overdo any of them.   In a pinch, crackers would be just fine.  Just be sure not to overheat the cheese – barely warm and soft.

Ingredients:

  • soft goat cheese
  • honey
  • fresh thyme
  • sea salt
  • cracked pepper
  • baguette sliced 1/2 inch thick
  • olive oil
  • garlic

Directions:

  1. Preheat broiler in oven to 400°.
  2. In a small oven-proof bowl or ramekin, spread soft goat cheese.
  3. Place the bread on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil.
  4. Just before serving, bake under broiler in oven for 5-8 minutes, just until slightly warm.
  5. At the same time, toast the bread under the broiler as well for 2-4 minutes until browned on the edges.
  6. Remove bread from oven and rub with a raw clove of garlic that has been cut in half.
  7. Drizzle honey on warm goat cheese.
  8. Sprinkle on fresh thyme leaves, sea salt & fresh cracked pepper.
