Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Baguette

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Slice the baguette into 1-inch thick slices and place them on a baking sheet.

  2. 2

    Bake the Baguette

    Bake the sliced baguette in the preheated oven for about 5-7 minutes or until they are lightly toasted.

  3. 3

    Spread the Farmer's Cheese

    Remove the baguette slices from the oven and let them cool slightly. Generously spread the house-made farmer's cheese on each toasted slice.

  4. 4

    Add Espelette Pepper Jelly

    Top each slice with a dollop of espelette pepper jelly, adjusting the amount to taste.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Arrange the prepared baguette slices on a serving platter and enjoy as an appetizer or snack.
