Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a small saucepan, combine honey, apple cider vinegar, Sriracha, minced garlic, and red pepper flakes. Heat for about 5 minutes until just simmering.
  2. In a food processor, blend feta cheese, cream cheese, and cottage cheese on high until smooth and creamy. This should take about 2 minutes.
  3. Take toasted baguette slices and arrange them on a serving platter. Pile generous amounts of whipped feta onto each slice.
  4. Sprinkle pecans and rosemary over the whipped feta on each crostini. Drizzle with warm hot honey before serving.
