Creamy Goat Cheese Fig Butter & Caramelized Bacon Crostini’s

Creamy Goat Cheese, Fig Butter & Caramelized Bacon Crostini’s


  • Author: Lee harsh

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 whole grain bread loaf
  • 1 12 oz. goat cheese log (812 oz.)
  • 4 Tbsp fig butter (fig preserves)
  • 6 thick slices turkey bacon
  • 1 Tbsp maple syrup
  • Olive oil to grease pan + drizzle on bread

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees farenheit. Slice bread into thin slices until loaf is used up. Place bread slices on a baking tray and drizzle with olive oil. I didn’t measure this, just use your best judgement and drizzle or brush a little on each. Bake bread for about 10 minutes. It should be crispy and golden, but not burnt.
  2. While the bread is baking heat a skillet with a little oil over medium heat. Slice your turkey bacon into small squares then cook in pan. Cook bacon on each side for about 5 minutes, until it becomes crispy. Halfway through cooking, add your maple syrup. Remember you want the bacon to come out crispy!! Once bacon is done, remove from pan and allow to cool on a paper towel.
  3. Melt your goat cheese and fig butter in a microwave safe dish for about 30 seconds. The outcome should be creamy and easy to stir.
  4. Spread desired amount of goat cheese dip onto each slice of bread then top with a few sqaures of turkey bacon. You can either crumble the bacon or keep them in small swaures. I found that crumbling it was easier to eat but either way works! Serve immediatley.

Notes

  1. Makes about 10-12 large crostini’s
