Equipment

Ingredients

For the Roasted Grapes:

  • pounds grapes, red, green, or a combination
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 sprigs fresh thyme
  • 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

For Assembly:

  • 3 naan breads
  • 4 ounces goat cheese, softened
  • ¼ cup toasted walnuts, roughly chopped (use pepitas/sunflower seeds for nut-free version), see notes
  • 2 tablespoons honey, for drizzling
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves, for garnish
  • Flaky sea salt
  • Freshly cracked black pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425°F.
  • Remove grapes from stems and place on a large rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and toss with thyme sprigs, rosemary sprigs, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, until grapes are caramelized, jammy, and some have burst. They should be golden brown in spots and very tender. Remove and discard herb sprigs.
  • Place naan breads on baking sheets and warm in the oven for 3-5 minutes, or until they are crisp enough to hold up under the toppings.
  • Remove naan from oven and immediately spread softened goat cheese evenly over each piece while warm.
  • Spoon the roasted grapes over the goat cheese. Sprinkle toasted walnuts over the top. Drizzle with honey, sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves, flaky sea salt, and freshly cracked black pepper.
  • Cut each naan into four rustic wedge-like pieces. Serve warm or room temperature.

Notes

  • How to Toast Nuts – Toasting nuts enhances their flavor and gives them a crispier texture. There are two ways to do it. Always transfer toasted nuts to a plate to cool; the residual heat from the baking sheet or skillet may over-toast the nuts. Store in an airtight container; refrigerate if not using the same day. 
    • Oven: arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet and toast for 5-10 minutes at 350°F, tossing halfway through.
    • Stovetop: place in a dry skillet over medium-low heat, stirring until they are golden and fragrant.
