This Creamy Baked Goat Cheese Dip combines the richness of goat cheese with the creaminess of cream cheese and sour cream, creating an indulgent dip that’s tangy and smooth, perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

8 oz soft goat cheese

3.5 oz (about ½ cup) cream cheese

1.75 oz (about ¼ cup) sour cream or Greek yogurt

1 garlic clove, minced

1 tbsp olive oil

1 tsp fresh rosemary or thyme (or ½ tsp dried)

Salt and pepper to taste

1 tsp honey (optional, for slight sweetness)

23 tbsp nuts (e.g., walnuts or pecans), for garnish

Croutons, crackers, and sun-dried tomatoes for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a bowl, combine the goat cheese, cream cheese, and sour cream (or Greek yogurt). Mix until smooth and well combined.
  3. Add the minced garlic, olive oil, rosemary (or thyme), salt, and pepper. If you like a touch of sweetness, stir in the honey.
  4. Transfer the mixture to a lightly greased small baking dish. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the top is slightly golden and the dip is creamy.
  5. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with chopped nuts for added texture. Drizzle with a bit of extra honey if desired for a sweet contrast.
  6. Serve the dip hot with your choice of croutons, crackers, or sun-dried tomatoes for dipping. Enjoy!

Notes

For a more decadent touch, drizzle more honey on top or serve the dip with sliced fruits like apples or pears.

Experiment with different herbs such as basil or oregano to customize the flavor.

For a vegan version, use dairy-free substitutes for the cream cheese, sour cream, and goat cheese.

Store any leftover dip in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat before serving.

Freeze the dip for up to 1 month. Thaw overnight in the fridge and reheat before serving.
