_Imagine coming home after a long day at work, and all you want is something delicious that doesn’t require hours in the kitchen. Girl, I’ve got you covered! Let me introduce you to my absolute favorite work-night snack that’s totally Instagram-worthy and will make your taste buds dance – Mediterranean-inspired Whipped Feta Crostini with honey drizzle! 💃_
Trust me, ladies (and gents!), this recipe is about to become your new obsession. It’s fancy enough to impress your guests but simple enough that you won’t break a sweat making it.
Here’s what you’ll need:
– 8 oz feta cheese (the real deal, not the pre-crumbled stuff!)
– 4 oz cream cheese, softened
– 2 tablespoons good quality olive oil
– Fresh baguette
– Honey for drizzling
– Fresh thyme
– Cracked black pepper
– Optional: crushed pistachios
Let’s get cooking, bestie!
First things first, let’s make that whipped feta (which, btw, is totally addictive – don’t say I didn’t warn you! 😉). Break up the feta and pop it in your food processor with the cream cheese and olive oil. Blend until it’s smooth and creamy like your favorite face moisturizer.

Now, slice that baguette into cute little rounds (about 1/2 inch thick), brush with olive oil, and toast them until they’re golden brown. You want them crispy but not break-your-teeth hard!
Here comes the fun part – assembly time! Spread a generous amount of that heavenly whipped feta on each crostini (don’t be shy, pile it on!). Drizzle with honey (that sweet-and-salty combo is everything!), sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves, add a crack of black pepper, and if you’re feeling fancy, throw on some crushed pistachios.
Y’all, this snack is seriously giving main character energy! It’s perfect for those nights when you want to feel fancy while binge-watching your favorite show in your PJs. No judgment here – we’ve all been there!
The best part? You can store the leftover whipped feta in the fridge for up to a week, which means you can live your best life with minimal effort for days to come!
