Lavender adds a delicate botanical aroma — subtle, not perfumy. Peach jam introduces fruity sweetness and a gentle brightness that rounds everything out beautifully.

Ingredients You’ll Need for This Recipe

To make this Lavender Goat Cheese Spread, you’ll only need a few simple ingredients that each play an important role:

• Plain goat’s cheese: The creamy, tangy base of the spread. Choose a fresh, soft variety for best results.
• Honey: Adds natural sweetness and smooths out the sharpness of the cheese.
• Peach jam: Brings fruity depth and soft sweetness. It also adds subtle colour and texture.
• Fresh lavender blooms (or dried buds): Provide a gentle floral aroma. Use sparingly — lavender should enhance, not overpower.

How to Make Lavender Goat Cheese Spread

To make this Lavender Goat Cheese Spread, blend the goat cheese with honey and lavender until mostly smooth. Then add the peach jam and pulse briefly until you reach your desired consistency — either fully smooth or slightly chunky. Spread onto a serving plate, garnish with extra lavender if desired, and serve with crackers or baguette.

• Spread it over toasted baguette or crostini.
