Goat Cheese Croquettes Recipe

Prepare the Cheese Mixture

In a mixing bowl, combine the goat cheese and cream cheese until smooth and well mixed.

Season the Mixture

Add garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and chopped fresh herbs to the cheese mixture. Mix until fully combined.

Form the Croquettes

Using your hands, take small portions of the cheese mixture and roll them into balls or patties, about 1 inch in diameter.

Set Up Breading Station

Prepare three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs.

Bread the Croquettes

First, roll each cheese ball in flour, then dip it in the beaten eggs, and finally coat it with breadcrumbs. Set aside on a plate.

Heat the Oil

In a large skillet or deep pan, heat vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

Fry the Croquettes

Carefully place the breaded croquettes in the hot oil, working in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Drain and Cool

Remove the croquettes from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Drizzle with Honey

Once the croquettes are slightly cooled, drizzle with wildflower honey before serving.

Serve Warm

Serve the goat cheese croquettes warm as an appetizer or snack.
