    Goat Cheese & Walnut Crostini is the perfect appetizer or even lunch! Crispy bread, creamy cheese, and toasted walnuts with pomegranate seeds.

    Goat Cheese & Walnut Crostini

    In my opinion, all good apps start with bread and cheese. Am I right? It’s hard to go wrong with a crispy piece of bread, spread with cheese and topped with something nutty and sweet. Enter my Goat Cheese & Walnut Crostini!

    Goat Cheese & Walnut Crostini

    Especially this time of year we all need an easy-to- assemble appetizer that everyone will love. Let’s be real though, I could just have these and a glass of wine for dinner and be totally satisfied. These little Goat Cheese & Walnut Crostini go perfectly with a glass (or two) of this Select Red Blend by Cavit. This whole scene just looks and feels like the holidays, doesn’t it?

    Goat Cheese & Walnut Crostini

    So gather round, pour yourself a glass of wine and enjoy this delightful snack!

    Description

    Goat Cheese & Walnut Crostini is the perfect appetizer or even lunch! Crispy bread, creamy cheese, and toasted walnuts with pomegranate seeds.


    Ingredients

    Scale
    • 1 large french baguette (thinly sliced)
    • Olive oil
    • Salt
    • Pepper
    • 8 ounces goat cheese (slightly softened)
    • 1 teaspoon minced fresh herbs (I used thyme and rosemary)
    • 1 cup chopped toasted walnuts
    • 1/4 cup pomegranate seeds
    • Honey for drizzling

    Instructions

    1. 1) Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place sliced bread on a baking sheet and brush lightly with olive oil then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Flip bread over and repeat on the other side. Bake for 7-10 minutes until lightly golden and crisp. Set aside to cool completely.
    2. 2) While bread bakes, add the goat cheese and herbs to a bowl and mix until fully combined.
    3. 3) Begin to assemble crostini. Spread some cheese onto each piece of bread. The top with walnuts, pomegranates, and a drizzle of honey!
