CHEESY OLIVE SNACKS

A super quick appetizer or sandwich for olive lovers. This takes about 10 minutes to throw together and 7 minutes to bake. The recipe is from TOH, my friends and family love it. Sometimes I like to toast English Muffins and serve this as a sandwich. You can substitute the olives to green and it is still delicious.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Olives: Select firm, ripe olives with vibrant color and no blemishes.
  • Prepare the Olives: For best results, remove the pits from the olives before stuffing them.
  • Cheese Variety: Use a combination of cheeses to create a flavorful filling. Cream cheese provides a smooth base, while Parmesan adds a nutty sharpness, and mozzarella melts beautifully.
  • Seasoning: Don't be afraid to experiment with herbs, spices, and seasonings to enhance the flavor of the filling. Garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and Italian seasoning are popular choices.
  • Stuffing Technique: Use a small spoon or a piping bag to carefully stuff the olives without overfilling them. This will prevent the filling from bursting during baking.
  • Coating Options: Breadcrumbs, Panko crumbs, crushed nuts, and sesame seeds are excellent coating options that add texture and flavor to the snacks.
  • Baking Temperature and Time: Bake the stuffed olives at a moderate temperature (around 350°F or 175°C) for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown and bubbly.
  • Serving Suggestions: Serve the cheesy olive snacks hot or at room temperature as an appetizer, party snack, or side dish. Accompany them with dipping sauces for an extra layer of flavor.

Conclusion:

Cheesy olive snacks are a delightful and versatile appetizer that combines the savory flavors of olives, cheese, and herbs. With a crispy exterior and a creamy, flavorful filling, these snacks are sure to be a hit at any gathering. Experiment with different cheese combinations, seasonings, and coatings to create your own unique variations. Whether you prefer classic flavors or something more adventurous, cheesy olive snacks offer a delicious and easy-to-make treat that everyone will enjoy.
