Instructions
Creating these delicious Honey Balsamic Bacon Goat Cheese & Pistachio Bites is a breeze when you follow these simple steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
3. Cook Bacon: Place the bacon slices on the baking sheet. Bake for about 12-15 minutes or until crispy. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
4. Mix Goat Cheese: In a bowl, combine the goat cheese, honey, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Mix until smooth and well-combined.
5. Assemble Bites: Once the bacon is cool, cut each slice in half. Take a half-slice of bacon and add a dollop of the goat cheese mixture on top.
6. Add Pistachios: Sprinkle chopped pistachios over the goat cheese on each bacon piece. For extra flavor, you can sprinkle fresh thyme if desired.
7. Drizzle Balsamic Glaze: Finish by drizzling balsamic glaze over each bite.
8. Serve Warm: Arrange the bites on a serving platter and serve immediately, while warm and crispy.
