- pepper, to taste
ingredients
Crostini
- 1/3 cup honey

- 1 baguette, sliced `
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3/4 cup fresh blackberries

Method
For the Goat Cheese Spread
Step 1
Crumble cream cheese and goat cheese into the bowl of a food processor. Blend for 10 seconds or so, then scrape down the sides of the bowl and add salt and pepper to taste. Blend again for 10-20 seconds until cheese is creamy and well-blended.
Step 2
Scoop whipped goat cheese into a small bowl and set aside.
For the Crostini
Step 1
Pour honey into a small saucepan. Add thyme sprig to honey and stir to combine.
Step 2
Warm honey over very low heat for 10-15 minutes to help it absorb the thyme flavor. Remove from heat and set aside to cool briefly while you prep the rest of the crostini ingredients.
Step 3
Lay baguette slices in a single layer on a sheet pan. Drizzle bread with olive oil and bake at 375 degrees until bread is lightly toasted, about 4-7 minutes.
Step 4
Top each crostini with a teaspoon or so of whipped goat cheese spread, then 1 or 2 blackberries. Sprinkle chopped basil and a pinch of lime zest over each crostini.
Step 5
Finally, use a small spoon to drizzle a bit of warm honey over each crostini. Serve immediately.
