Instructions

1
1. Toast the bread slices in a skillet or toaster until golden and crisp. If using an oven or toaster oven with temperature control, set it to 400°F (200°C).
2
2. In a bowl, mix the goat cheese with the Greek yogurt, 1 teaspoon of the olive oil, a pinch of salt, and a little black pepper. Mash with a fork until smooth and spreadable.
3
3. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the grapes, walnuts, and remaining olive oil. Sauté for 2 minutes, stirring often.
4
4. Add the balsamic vinegar, honey, and half of the fresh thyme. Cook 2 to 3 minutes more, until the grapes are glossy and slightly softened and the walnuts are toasted.
5
5. Spread the whipped goat cheese mixture over each toast. Spoon the warm grapes and walnuts on top.
6
6. Finish with the remaining fresh thyme, a twist of black pepper, and a final small pinch of salt. Serve immediately.

Chef tips

For an airier texture, beat the goat cheese and yogurt with a wooden spoon for 1 extra minute. Serve the grapes warm for the best contrast against the cool creamy spread.

Substitutions

You can swap the walnuts for pecans if you do not need to avoid other tree nuts. Greek yogurt can be replaced with cream cheese for a denser spread. Thyme can be replaced with finely chopped rosemary in a smaller amount.
