Recipe: Warm Goat Cheese Toasts with Olive Tapenade

Recipe, Warm Goat Cheese Toasts with Olive Tapenade

I first had these warm goat cheese toasts at a friend’s place, and I was immediately hooked. It’s such a great snack, and you only need 4 ingredients and 10 minutes to make it. A perfect nibble along with pre-dinner drinks, at the tapas table, or served together with a creamy tomato soup.

When goat cheese is heated, it becomes exceptionally creamy and slightly puffy. For the photos in this post, I’ve made the toasts with sour dough baguette, but any regular baguette, or other kinds of white bread would do.

The Spread-mmms tapenade has a nice kick that goes well with the sharp goat cheese flavor, but you can use any olive tapenade of your liking.

Ingredients

  • 1 baguette

  • 2 tablespoons olive tapenade

  • 1 small log of goat cheese with rind ( you would need enough to cut 12 discs, 0.5 inch (1.5cm) thick

  • Olive oil to drizzle

Directions

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (225°C)
  • Cut the baguette into 12 slices about ½ inch thick.
  • Pour a bit of olive oil on a plate and dip each side of the sliced bread in the oil.
  • Place the olive-soaked bread slices on a baking sheet.
  • Cut the goat cheese log into 12 discs about ½ inch thick.
  • Place the cheese on top of the bread slices
  • Bake for 4-5 minutes and keep an eye on the toasts all the time, as they are easy to burn. When the bread is slightly golden, and the cheese turns soft and start melting the toasts are ready.
  • Top with olive tapenade and serve hot. You can also add the tapenade before baking. I’ve tried both options, and I like the flavor better, when added afterwards.

I’ve had really good experiences with the Ninja air fryers. They're easy to use, the quality feels solid, and the results are consistently great. I’ve had really good experiences with the Ninja air fryers. They’re easy to use, the quality feels solid, and the results are consistently great. I like that you don’t have to fuss around with settings to get good food out of it. Vegetables turn out crisp without drying out, and chicken comes out juicy with a nice golden crust. It’s one of those kitchen gadgets that actually lives up to the hype and ends up being used all the time.

Caraway Nonstick Ceramic Frying Pan (2.7 qt, 10.5")
$115.00

Caraway recently launched on Amazon, and their cookware is as pretty as it is practical. The Caraway 10.5" Nonstick Ceramic Frying Pan is one of those pieces you’ll find yourself reaching for all the time, whether it’s for eggs, sautéed veggies, or pancakes on the weekend. I especially love it in Perracotta, which adds such a nice pop of color in the kitchen.

The naturally non-stick surface means you can cook with less oil or butter, and cleanup is quick with just a wipe or light wash. Like all of Caraway’s cookware, the pan is free from PTFE, PFOA, PFAS, lead, and cadmium, so you don’t have to worry about toxins sneaking into your food.

It works on all stovetops, gas, electric, and induction, and it’s oven-safe up to 550ºF, which makes it super versatile. Durable, easy to use, and so good-looking, this is a pan that really makes everyday cooking feel a little more special.
