Ingredients

8 oz block feta cheese, patted dry
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons honey, plus more for serving
2 sprigs fresh thyme, halved
2 or 3 Fresh figs, cut in half, optional
1/4 chopped pistachios
Crostini or crackers, for serving

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F and position a rack in the upper third.
Place the block of feta in a small oven-safe dish. Drizzle with the olive oil and honey.
Add the thyme sprigs around the feta in the dish. Arrange a couple of fresh figs around the feta, if using.
Bake for 9 to 10 minutes, or until the feta is warmed through and slightly softened.
Remove from the oven, and top with chopped pistachios and a drizzle of honey. Serve immediately with crostini or crackers.

Notes

How to Store:

Fresh is best, but leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the oven at 350°F until warmed through. Avoid microwaving because feta can become rubbery.
