Goat Cheese Crostini with Honey, Pecans and Thyme

Recipe Description

This Goat Cheese Crostini with Honey, Pecans and Thyme recipe is a fantastic appetizer inspired by trips to France where we would nibble on pre-dinner snacks like this one. Sipping glasses of sparkling wine as the sun sets. Oh, how I’d love to be back there, but for now, this recipe will have to suffice!

To make these crostini, start by toasting baguette slices in the oven. Make the topping by combining goat cheese and honey. It’s OK if it’s not completely smooth. Spread the mixture on the bread while it is still warm from the oven. Decorate the top with chopped pecans, fresh thyme leaves and a pinch of sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper, if desired. Drizzle each crostini with honey before serving. 

To make Goat Cheese Crostini with Honey, Pecans and Thyme, you will need the following ingredients:
