Description
If you’re a fan of fun food like I am, you’ll want to serve up a platter of these plant-based goat cheese and grape pops … soon. And if you want something a bit more elevated, simply serve these without the picks and call them “truffles.” Either way you enjoy them, they’re delightful!
Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 6 large seedless grapes, any color
- 3 ounces plain plant-based goat or other soft treenut cheese, such as Treeline dairy-free goat cheese
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 1/2 cup coating(s) of choice, such as chopped fresh herbs, chopped nuts, or seeds
- Sea salt, to taste (optional)
- 6 appetizer-sized bamboo picks
Instructions
- Wash and fully dry the grapes. One by one, form the plant-based goat cheese around each grape using your (clean!) hands. Then freeze for 5 minutes to slightly firm up.
- Season with freshly ground black pepper, to taste. Roll each “cheese” ball in the herbs, nut and/or seed coating of choice. Add a pinch of sea salt, if desired.
- Insert bamboo picks and enjoy as pops. Or skip the picks and serve as truffles. Keep cool until ready to serve.
