This is a crowd pleaser. With the minimal ingredients it won’t leave you felling heavy like whipped feta. This baked goat cheese dip or spread is less rich but equally as flavorful.
Ingredients Needed
Goat Chèvre. You can find this at all grocery stores in the specialty cheese area. This is the ONLY ingredient you will need to make the dip or spread. But I prefer to pair it with the above ingredients.
Fresh Figs. Any color will work. They taste amazing with this recipe. You can use any mix ins you would prefer with this recipe! See recipe notes for more flavor ideas.
Fresh Bakery Bread. I like italian or sourdough. The baked goat cheese spreads so nicely on toasted bread.
Honey. Totally optional here but it tastes great.
How To Make This Recipe
This is too simple. You take the goat cheese chèvre, place it in an oiled ramekin and bake on broil low for about 8 minutes or less. Keep a close eye on it. Once the top starts to brown and get a nice crust, pull it out. In the meantime, slice your figs and toast your bread.
Once the goat cheese is baked, gently stir it a bit and spread it over the toast. Add fresh figs and honey and enjoy right away.
Tips and FAQ’s.
