Savory and Sweet Baguette Bites are my new favourite party food.
Over the holidays I had the opportunity to visit with family and friends on multiple occasions. Along with chatting, a lot of snacking was done.
I thought I would share one of my favorite and easiest recipe that I adopted over the holidays. It is the perfect combination of savory and sweet, with a tiny bit of spice. My only caution is that these are addictive, you can’t have just one!
Savory and Sweet Baguette Bites
Ingredients
1 large baguette, sliced into rounds or ovals
1 jar of red pepper jelly (hot is okay)
250mls of spreadable cream cheese
1-2 cups of grated cheddar cheese
Instructions
Preparation is easy. If the baguette is not already sliced, do so. Cutting on an angle will give you more surface area. Slices should be about 1/2 inch thick. Lay flat on cooking sheet. Spread with a thin layer of cream cheese. Follow with a spread of red pepper jelly. Finish with a sprinkle of grated cheddar cheese. Cook at 350 degrees for about 10 minutes, or until cheddar is melted.
Notes
Serve and enjoy. They can be prepared a few hours early and cooked once the guests arrive. This will leave more time for socializing.
