Goat Cheese Crostini
Who doesn’t love goat cheese… well, ok, fine, I know some people that don’t but that ain’t me. I LOVE goat cheese. And if you know me by now, you know I LOVE balsamic syrup. I put that stuff on anything I can. So, I thought let’s combine the two, in a yummy appetizer, with fruit and granola… can’t go wrong with that!
The simplicity of this recipe makes it attainable for anyone to create but the wow factor is super high. Bring this platter of adorable, flavourful crostini out to your guests and you will have an appetizer worth gossiping about all night long… and maybe even the next morning.
