Crostini with Goat Cheese, Pecans and Rosemary

Toasted bread slices topped with tangy goat cheese and chopped pecans. A hint of fresh rosemary and a drizzle of honey work especially well in this scrumptious appetizer.

Ingredients

1 (8-10 ounce) French baguette, cut into 1/4-inch thick slices

8 ounces goat cheese

1/2 cup pecans, finely chopped

1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped

1/4 cup GOLDEN BLOSSOM HONEY, warmed

Honey Tips

How Honey Is Created

Honey is created when bees mix plant nectar, a sweet substance secreted by flowers, with their own bee enzymes.

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 &deg.
Spread about 1 teaspoon of goat cheese on each slice of baguette. Arrange slices in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake 10-12 minutes until cheese softens. Remove from oven, sprinkle slices with pecans and then rosemary. Drizzle with a little honey.
