Peach Canapés

2 Comments

Be traditional and serve these with a morning cup of coffee for a light beginning to the day!

What You'll Need

1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup peach preserves
1/2 cup chopped pecans, toasted (see Note)
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
10 slices white bread

What to Do

In a large bowl, combine the cream cheese, preserves, pecans, and ginger; mix well.
Spread equal amounts of the mixture evenly over each bread slice and cut each into 4 squares.

Makes about 3 1/2 dozen.

Notes

To toast the pecans, spread them in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet and bake at 425 degrees F. for 7 to 9 minutes, or until golden. (Keep an eye on them, 'cause they may be ready sooner!) You can make up the cream cheese spread and keep it in the fridge, then spread it on bread for breakfast; it's great for unexpected company, too!
