Hooray for Simple Appetizers!

This Boursin appetizer is forever in my repertoire.

Smooth Boursin spread on a dish, embellished with salted pistachios, and topped with warm honey. Voila! It requires only 5 minutes and is like a magnet for people. It’s REALLY TASTY.

I’m making this Boursin appetizer officially known here as I’ve received numerous inquiries about it on Instagram, yet you hardly even need a recipe for this:

  • Spread Boursin on a dish (affiliate link to the version shown here!).
  • Top with pistachios and warm honey.
  • Live your best life.

It’s been such a crowd-pleaser among my friends during dinner parties and casual get-togethers. And, even more so, it’s become a favorite in my own home, where I’ve taken to whipping up this dish on a random weeknight to enjoy as an easy appetizer outdoors with my kids. It’s the happiest time.

Many of you have suggested that adding fig jam on top (before the pistachios) is also divine – I must admit, I’m fond of my current take, but I believe you that fig jam is an impressive addition. Just a suggestion for anyone looking to try that.

Hope you enjoy this as much as I do!

Description

This quick appetizer is made in a flash with just three key ingredients: creamy Boursin, pistachios, and hot honey.

Instructions

  1. Prep (Optional): Allow the Boursin to reach room temperature for 15 minutes. (Optional – this simply makes spreading, dipping, and enjoying easier.)
  2. Spread Cheese: Select a beautiful plate or serving dish – even a standard dinner plate will suffice. Use the back of a spoon to spread the Boursin onto the plate evenly.
  3. Add Toppings: Sprinkle the pistachios over the cheese. Drizzle with hot honey.
  4. Serve: Accompany with crackers or apple slices. I like to add a small spoon on the plate for easier spreading of the dip on the crackers. It’s so flavorful!

Notes

Crackers: I paired these with a thin garlic thyme cracker at my last dinner gathering, and it was fabulous! However, this dip would complement nearly any kind of crackers.

Chopper: I adore this little chopper for chopping or crushing nuts (and sauces, and vegetables – I use it constantly)! Just a few pulses and you’re all set. So swift and efficient.
