This is a super easy and quick appetizer to make and damn delicious might I add. The fresh herb coated goat cheese compliments the sun-dried tomatoes magnificently. The baguettes come out crispy on the outside with a chewy center. All together these goat cheese and sun-dried tomato baguettes should be an absolute go to appetizer to add to your repertoire.
The key to this recipe is in the fresh ingredients. The only dried ingredient you want to use are the tomatoes. Everything else – the thyme, rosemary and mint should all be 100% fresh.
By pre-baking the baguette slices in the oven you will ensure that you do not overcook the goat cheese. You just want it to be nice and warm when you pull out of the oven.
I also recommend serving these bad boys immediately after baking.
