Step 1

Preheat a broiler to high.

Step 2

Place the goat cheese in a small, oven-proof dish. Drizzle lightly with 1/2 teaspoon of the olive oil, sea salt and a few twists of a pepper mill. Broil the goat cheese until a golden crust begins to form, about 8-10 minutes. (Use your best judgement, as broilers can vary wildly.)

Step 3

In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, sea salt, and a generous sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper. Add the raspberries and gently combine with the dressing. Tear the mint leaves into pieces and toss them in.

Step 4

Remove the goat cheese from the oven, and allow it to cool for a few minutes.

Step 5

To serve, spread the goat cheese on the crackers or toasted baguette slices; finish with a spoonful of the raspberry mix.

Step 6

Serve immediately.
