Easy Goat Cheese and Honey Bites
Easy Goat Cheese and Honey Bites are a delightful appetizer perfect for gatherings, featuring flaky pastry, creamy goat cheese, sweet honey, and thyme.
Equipment
- Rolling Pin
- round biscuit or cookie cutter
- parchment paper
- baking sheet
Ingredients
- 1 package puff pastry
- 6-8 oz goat cheese
- ¼ cup honey
- 4 sprigs thyme
Instructions
- Follow the package instructions for thawing the puff pastry sheets. Roll out the dough a little to flatten it.
- Using a 2-inch circle cookie or biscuit cutter (or the rim of a small glass), cut rounds out of the dough.
- Transfer the cut pastry rounds to parchment-lined baking sheets and then gently press your thumb into the center of each one.
- Place 1 teaspoon of goat cheese in the indentation of each round. Bake at 400°F until the pastry is flaky and golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes.
- When the baking sheet comes out of the oven, wait 2 minutes, then drizzle each piece with honey and garnish with a pinch of chopped fresh thyme. Enjoy!
Notes
You can halve this recipe for a small party. Use just 1 sheet of dough. Don't forget to push the center of each round down. If you don't, the pastry will puff up, and you may lose your cheese! These bites are best served warm out of the oven, so plan accordingly.
