Ingredients
  

  • 1 baguette sliced thin
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • 2 cups of fresh blueberries
  • 1/4 cup filtered water
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1-2 tablespoons local honey
  • 1 generous pinch of sea salt
  • Zest of ½ lemon
  • Juice of ½ lemon
  • 1 teaspoon of thyme leaves finely chopped
  • 5 ounces goat cheese
  • ¼ cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • Lemon zest of ½ lemon
  • Sea salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to broil. Slice the baguette into thin slices and place them on a baking sheet. Brush the top side with olive oil. Toast baguette slices for about 2 or until golden brown.
  • In a small saucepan, combine the blueberries, water, apple cider vinegar,
  • honey, and a pinch of sea salt. Bring blueberries to a boil, reduce and let simmer for about 5 minutes or until the blueberries begin to pop open and the liquid has slightly reduced. Remove from heat. Add lemon zest, lemon juice and chopped thyme leaves and stir.
  • In a food processor, combine creamy goat cheese, ricotta, honey, and sea salt and pulse until creamy.
  • To assemble the crostini, spread a thin layer of the goat cheese mixture on each piece of toasted bread. Using a slotted spoon, top each piece with strained blueberries. Garnish with fresh chopped thyme leaves. Serve immediately.
