Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh cranberries (rinsed and drained)
- 2 tablespoons honey (plus more to drizzle)
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves (plus extra for garnish)
- 1 teaspoon orange zest (optional)
- Pinch of salt
- 1 (8 oz.) container of Good Culture Cream Cheese
- ¼ cup toasted walnuts, chopped
- Crackers, crostini, or endive leaves for serving
Instructions
- Make the cranberry compote: In a small saucepan, combine cranberries, honey, thyme, orange zest, and a pinch of salt. Cook over medium heat for about 8–10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cranberries burst and the mixture thickens slightly. Let cool to room temperature.
- Prepare the base: Spread the Good Culture cream cheese in a shallow serving bowl or small plate. Its creamy, tangy base adds richness and a boost of live and active probiotics made simply, the way it should be.
- Assemble: Spoon the cooled cranberry compote over the cream cheese. Top with toasted walnuts and a drizzle of honey.
- Finish & serve: Garnish with a few thyme leaves and serve with crisp crackers or endive leaves.
