This whipped feta crostini recipe is a flavor-packed, bite-sized wonder that’ll steal the spotlight at your next holiday party! Perfectly toasted crostini and a tangy whipped feta, topped three different ways. This easy appetizer recipe is a total crowd-pleaser!
What You’ll Need to Make Whipped Feta Crostini
Baguette (1-inch slices): The crunchy canvas for your culinary masterpiece. Go for a good-quality baguette that will hold up to the whipped feta goodness. Or use a gluten-free baguette for an entirely gluten-free appetizer.
Feta: The star of the show! Opt for a high-quality feta for that perfect blend of creaminess and tanginess. I use and recommend this barrel-aged feta.
Yogurt: A dollop of yogurt adds a touch of smoothness to the whipped feta. It’s the secret ingredient for that irresistible texture.
Good Quality Olive Oil: A drizzle of liquid gold to tie it all together. Don’t skimp on the olive oil; it’s the finishing touch that elevates this crostini recipe. I use and love this Graza Olive Oil in my whipped feta!
Tips and Tricks
- Whip It Good: When blending the feta and yogurt, let the mixer work its magic. Whip until the texture is smooth and creamy. You want that dreamy consistency that spreads like a cloud on your crostini.
- Get Ahead of the Game: This recipe is a winner for planning ahead. Whip the feta mixture in advance and store it in the fridge. Toast the baguette slices separately. When it’s party time, assemble the crostini with a dollop of whipped feta right before serving.
- Top it Off Creatively: Let your creativity shine by trying different toppings. Pomegranate seeds and honey add a burst of sweetness, while sliced pears, walnuts, and honey provide a perfect blend of textures. For a classic touch, go with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of flaky salt – my favorite!
