Description

These Fig & Goat Cheese Crostini are a delightful combination of flavors that bring a touch of elegance to any table. Each crispy baguette slice is spread with creamy goat cheese and topped with sweet fig jam, then drizzled generously with honey and finished with fresh mint leaves. The result is a perfect blend of textures and a balance of sweet, creamy, and herbaceous notes that’s simply irresistible.


Ingredients

Scale

1 long baguette
2 tbsp olive oil
5 oz soft goat cheese (with honey, if available)
¼ cup fig jam or fig butter
2 tbsp honey (or to taste)
10 fresh mint leaves


Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Slice the baguette diagonally into ½-inch slices to maximize space for toppings.
Arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet and brush or drizzle olive oil on one side of each slice.
Bake for 5-8 minutes, or until the edges are golden and slightly crisp, while the center remains soft.
If needed, whip the goat cheese in a stand mixer or with a hand mixer until smooth and creamy. If your goat cheese doesn’t contain honey, add 2 tbsp of honey and mix until well blended.
Spread approximately 1 tbsp of whipped goat cheese onto each baguette slice.
Top each with about 1 tbsp of fig jam.
Arrange the crostini close together on a serving platter and drizzle honey generously over the top (about 2 tbsp or adjust to taste).
Slice the mint leaves into thin strips and scatter over the fig jam for a fresh, vibrant flavor.
