Description
These Cranberry Pecan Goat Cheese Bites are made with Cranberry Orange Sauce paired with creamy goat cheese, toasty pecans, and fresh rosemary for an easy and delicious holiday appetizer. Gluten-free with a vegan option.
Ingredients
Scale
For the bites:
- 1 batch Favorite Cranberry Orange Sauce (you'll have leftovers)
- 1 box Dr. Praeger's Broccoli Littles (or 1 baguette sliced into 1/2 inch slices)
- 2 oz goat cheese, at room temperature (sub hummus for vegan option)
- chopped pecans, for garnish
- 1 sprig fresh rosemary, chopped
- sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450F and bake Broccoli Littles according to package directions. If using a baguette instead, bake slices at 400F for 10 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
- When ready to assemble, gently place a smear of of goat cheese on each broccoli bite. (If you try to spread the cheese, the bites will break.) Then top each bite with a dollop of cranberry sauce, chopped rosemary, a sprinkle of pecans, and sea salt. These are delicious at room temperature and even better heated in the oven until the cheese is warmed!
Notes
Orange Bourbon Cranberry Sauce can be served on its own with Thanksgiving dinner or stirred into oatmeal, yogurt, etc.
