Prosciutto Bites with Fig Goat Cheese + Chives
It’s no secret that I love bacon. Prosciutto is a bit more sophisticated version of the breakfast staple, but when baked in the oven it becomes crispy and delicate and is more the essence of bacon than the fatty real thing. I could eat these all day, every day, for the rest of my life. And best of all, they are super simple to make.
Ingredients:
10 slices prosciutto
1/2 c. fig goat cheese (if you can’t find this you can just combine regular goat cheese and fig jam)
chives (for garnish)
Cut prosciutto slices into thirds. In a mini muffin tin, lay the pieces of prosciutto into the cups – basically, like you’re lining them. Pop into a 400 degree oven for about 8 minutes or until mostly crispy. Pull out of the oven, put a dab of goat cheese in the center (the prosciutto cups will be slightly shrivelled but this just helps them hold their shape) and sprinkle with chopped chives. Pop back into the oven and bake for 3-5 minutes or until goat cheese is a bit bubbly. Serve and enjoy!
