GoatCheesewith FigJam&Pecans
A warm spread made with creamy goat cheese, fig jam, balsamic and toasted pecans!
Ingredients:
8 ounces goat cheese (softened to room temperature)
4 ounces cream cheese (softened to room temperature)
1/2 cup fig jam
2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1/3 cup chopped pecans ((or walnuts, almonds or pistachios))
2 tbsp chopped thyme and/or rosemary
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F
In a mixing bowl, stir together goat cheese and cream cheese until combined. Spread the cheese mixture evenly in the bottom of an oven-safe baking dish. Spoon the fig jam over the goat cheese, spreading it evenly.
Drizzle the balsamic vinegar over the top of the fig jam. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until the fig jam is bubbling and hot.
While the spread bakes, toast the chopped pecans (or nuts of your choice) in a dry pan until aromatic. Once out of the oven, sprinkle with fresh, chopped herbs and toasted pecans. Allow it to cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve with an assortment of crostini, crackers, crudites, etc.
