Easy Baked Goat Cheese and Honey Appetizer

Baked Goat Cheese is a near effortless crowd pleasing appetizer.

Just before Thanksgiving one of our lake neighbors and I were discussing our favorite holiday appetizers. I expressed my love for baked brie, which she had never tried when she mentioned it sounded much like one of her favorite recipes – Baked Goat Cheese and Honey.

I’ve always loved a whipped goat cheese drizzle with honey and thyme, so I was intrigued. Plus, I look for every opportunity to wrap cheese in puff pastry. It’s a glorious combination that holds the cheese together making it presentable, but adds a buttery flavor and nice flaky texture to cheese.

This easy baked goat cheese appetizer takes just 5 minutes hands on time and presents well with an array of fruits and crackers.

It’s so easy that I decided to whip up a little video, too.
