Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole garlic head
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 200 grams feta cheese, crumbled
- 120 grams cream cheese, softened
- 50 grams walnuts, toasted
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper, freshly ground
- 1 loaf baguette or bread slices
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Slice off the top of the garlic head to expose the cloves. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the garlic, wrap it in aluminum foil, and roast in the oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the cloves are soft and golden.
While the garlic is roasting, toast the walnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent burning. Set aside to cool.
Once the garlic is roasted, squeeze the softened cloves into a food processor.
Add the feta cheese, cream cheese, toasted walnuts, lemon juice, honey, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and black pepper to the food processor.
Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Thinly slice the baguette or bread and toast the slices under a broiler or in a toaster until golden and crisp.
Spread the Roasted Garlic Feta and Walnut Dip onto the toasted bread slices, or serve the dip in a bowl alongside the toast for dipping.
Garnish the dip with fresh parsley, a drizzle of olive oil, and a sprinkle of chopped walnuts if desired.
