| ½ cup unsweetened dried cherries | 4 oz creamy goat cheese |
| ½ cup cherry wine or sweet red wine |
2 oz smoked ham, thinly sliced |
| 1 baguette, sliced ½-1 inch thick | ¼ cup unsalted nuts, crushed |
| 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil | 1 Tbsp fresh thyme leaves |
| Dash coarse salt | 2 Tbsp honey |
Place dried cherries and wine in a jar fitted with a lid. Allow cherries to soak for 2 or more hours, until plump. Drain.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place baguette slices on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with coarse salt. Bake in the oven for 7-8 minutes, until crisp. Allow to cool.
Spread a thick layer of goat cheese on each crostini. Top each with a slice of thin ham, a tablespoon of wine-soaked cherries, a teaspoon of nuts and a few thyme leaves. Drizzle each crostini with a teaspoon of honey and a dash of coarse salt. Serve.
Serves 8
