Crispy Baked Boursin with Spicy Honey

Ingredients

  • 1 whole Boursin cheese (any flavor)
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon of olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
  • Fresh herbs for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. Begin by setting up a dredging station. Place the flour in one shallow dish, the beaten eggs in another, and mix the panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper in a third dish.
  3. Take the Boursin cheese and carefully coat it in flour, shaking off any excess. Then, dip it into the beaten eggs, letting the excess drip off, and finally, roll it in the panko mixture until it’s fully coated.
  4. Once coated, place the cheese on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil to help it crisp up in the oven.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy on the outside.
  6. While the cheese is baking, prepare the spicy honey. In a small bowl, combine honey and red pepper flakes. Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes based on your spice preference.
  7. Once the cheese is done baking, carefully remove it from the oven and let it cool for a minute. Drizzle the spicy honey generously over the hot cheese.
  8. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired, and serve immediately with crackers, bread, or fresh vegetables for dipping.
