A cheesy and easy appetizer, goat cheese crostini
These goat cheese crostinis are topped with a cranberry chutney that is made in about 5 minutes! And to give it a little sweet crunch I topped them candied walnuts that are made in 3-4 minutes. So this is a simple appetizer that seems fancy but is quick to make.

Making goat cheese crostini
Making this appetizer is pretty simple. I use a combination of goat cheese and cream cheese. I do this so it is easier to spread and also breaks up the sharpness of the goat cheese. Totally up to you though, just use goat cheese if you prefer!
Here is a snapshot of the process:
Goat cheese crostini would be a great addition for Thanksgiving or any holiday party!
