Ingredients
Scale
For the Crust:
- 1 large ball burrata cheese (about 8 oz)
- 1/2 cup fresh cranberries, halved
- 1/2 cup pomegranate arils
- 1/4 cup hot honey (store-bought or homemade with honey and red pepper flakes)
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Crackers or toasted baguette slices for serving
Instructions
1. Prepare the Crust:
- Place the burrata ball in the center of a serving platter and gently tear it open with your hands, spreading the creamy interior slightly to form a wreath shape.
- Scatter the halved cranberries and pomegranate arils evenly over and around the burrata, leaving some space in the center for visual appeal.
- Drizzle the hot honey over the burrata, cranberries, and pomegranate, allowing it to pool in the center and edges.
- Sprinkle fresh thyme leaves, salt, and black pepper over the top, then finish with a drizzle of olive oil.
- Serve immediately with crackers or toasted baguette slices for scooping.
