Ingredients:

  • 8 ounces (225 ) firm feta cheese, drained well
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 tablespoons chopped toasted walnuts
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • Low FODMAP crackers or slices of toasted low FODMAP baguette

Preparation:

  1. Position rack in middle of oven. Preheat oven to 400°F/200°C.
  2. Slice feta into slabs about 1/2-inch (12 mm) thick. Place one slab in a small oven-proof dish, drizzle with a little olive oil and honey, sprinkle with some nuts, thyme and black pepper. Repeat with remaining ingredients, stacking the feta slabs on top of the previous one in a slightly overlapping fashion (refer to images).
  3. Bake for about 10 minutes or until the cheese is hot and softened. Serve immediately with crackers or bread.

Tips

  • Feta can be made from cow's milk, sheep or goat's milk or combinations. The texture can range from creamy to firm and the saltiness level can vary hugely. Taste ahead of time and use a feta that you love and adjust seasoning accordingly.
