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

Honey Bees Need Water

To keep their hives strong, beekeepers must place them in locations that will provide abundant nectar sources as well as water.

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.
