How to Make Pepper Jelly Goat Cheese Crostini

Only four ingredients needed, minus the olive oil, kosher salt, and pepper, which I don’t count because I use them in just about everything I make.

You’ll need a loaf of French bread, spreadable goat cheese, pepper jelly, and fresh thyme leaves.

ingredients for the appetizer

Start by slicing the bread in half inch slices.

Brush the tops with olive oil.

And a sprinkle of kosher salt and pepper.

Bake them for 5 minutes in a 400 degree oven.

Just enough time to crisp them slightly on the outside, but still soft in the middle.

Once they are nice and toasty, it’s time to assemble the crostini.

ready to top the crostini

First spread the goat cheese over top.

And then the pepper jelly.

I had the best luck using a spoon for the jelly.

And remember, a little goes a long way with the jelly.

Finally garnish with the fresh thyme leaves, making them look extra festive and pretty.
