Ingredients

  • 250-300 g softened goat cheese or cream cheese
  • 1 tbsp liquid honey
  • 1/2 cup strawberry jam
  • 2 tbsp minced fresh basil
  • pinch ground pepper
  • crostini or crackers for serving

Instructions

  • To a low bowl or plate, spread softened goat cheese (or cream cheese) mixed with honey. 
  • Next spread a layer of strawberry jam.
  • Sprinkle over fresh basil and then a few pinches of ground black pepper.
  • Serve with crackers or crostini.

Notes

  • Want to make your own crostini? Preheat the oven to 400°Fahrenheit. Use a bread knife to slice a baguette into 1-inch thick slices. Brush the bread slices with olive oil on one side and place in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 5 minutes, then flip and bake for another 5 minutes until toasted.
  • Want to try a different jam? Blueberry jam would also be delicious!
