Instructions

  1. Prepare the bread: Toast the slice of country bread until it is golden brown and crisp. This helps provide a sturdy base and a satisfying crunch.

  4. Arrange fig slices: Place the fresh fig slices evenly on top of the goat cheese-covered toast.
  5. Add honey: Drizzle a small amount of honey over the fig slices to add a natural sweetness that complements the goat cheese.
  6. Garnish: Sprinkle fresh thyme leaves over the toast for an aromatic herbal note, then add a pinch of freshly ground pepper to balance the flavors.
  7. Serve immediately: Enjoy this toast fresh to savor the contrast between the warm, toasty bread and the cool, creamy goat cheese with sweet fig and honey.
