- 1 16" French baguette sliced 1" thick
- 4 oz cream cheese
- 4 slices serrano ham You may substitute prosciutto
- 32 walnut halves
- 4 dried figs quartered vertically
- Balsamic fig glaze optional
Spread cream cheese thinly on each slice of baguette.
Divide serrano ham slices into 4 equal pieces. Top cream cheese with a piece of ham. Crimp ham so it is scrunched up a bit and leaves some cream cheese surface open.
Secure 1 dried fig piece and 2 walnut halves on top of the open cream cheese surface and in the folds of the ham.
Drizzle lightly with Balsamic Fig Glaze if using.
Notes:
You can substitute any dried ham such Speck or Prosciutto for the Serrano.
The Balsamic Fig Glaze is optional but adds a nice touch. A plain Balsamic Glaze (reduction) works too.
