Pistachio-Encrusted Strawberry Skewers with Beach Plum Drizzle

Ingredients

SKEWERS

  • 1 lb large fresh strawberries hulled
  • 1 Tbsp local honey
  • 2 cups pistachios finely chopped
  • 1 jar Bartlett’s Farm Beach Plum Jelly
  • fresh mint small leaves, for garnish

WHIPPED GOAT CHEESE

  • 6 oz goat cheese
  • 3 oz cream cheese
  • 1 Tbsp Greek yogurt
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice

BEACH PLUM DRIZZLE

  • 6 strawberries mashed
  • juice of 1 fresh lime
  • 1 Tbsp local honey
  • 1/4 cup Bartlett’s
  • Farm Beach Plum Jelly

Instructions

  • Slide one large strawberry onto a short bamboo skewer. Drizzle with honey, then roll in the chopped pistachios to coat evenly.
  • Whip the goat cheese, cream cheese, Greek yogurt, and lemon juice together until smooth. Chill in the freezer until firm enough to roll.
  • Roll the goat cheese mixture into small balls and thread one onto the bottom of each skewer.
  • For the drizzle, combine the mashed strawberries, beach plum jam, lime juice, and honey in a small saucepan and warm gently over low heat.
  • Arrange the skewers on a platter and drizzle generously with the warm strawberry–beach plum sauce.
  • Garnish with fresh mint and a final scatter of chopped pistachios. Serve immediately.

Notes

A one-bite showstopper for a summer gathering. Sweet Bartlett’s Farm strawberries are rolled in local honey and crushed pistachios, threaded with a whipped goat cheese, then finished with a warm strawberry–beach plum sauce. Make the components ahead and assemble just before guests arrive
