Baked Artichokes with Honey Whipped Feta

Baked Artichokes with Honey Whipped Feta. Baked instead of fried, these Panko-coated artichokes are served over sweet and creamy honey-whipped feta cheese. This is the simplest of appetizers, yet so amazingly GOOD. This is the perfect appetizer or snack for all occasions.

The breading is a mix of Panko breadcrumbs, sesame seeds, and spices. I love to use paprika, dried thyme, or sometimes rosemary. Then garlic, onion powder, and a pinch of cayenne too.

Toss the artichokes with olive oil, this will help the coating stick. Then dredge each artichoke half through the crumbs, just like you’d make breaded chicken! Then drizzle with olive oil and bake!

Moving on to the feta sauce, which as you might imagine is delicious and rather addicting. It’s just feta cheese whipped together with cream cheese (for creaminess), honey, garlic, lemon, and a pinch of black pepper.

This is easiest to do in a food processor.

What’s great about the feta is that you can make it way in advance and just keep it in the fridge until serving time. I would recommend bringing it back to room temperature before you serve it for the very best flavor.

When the artichokes are ready, you can serve them up with the feta on the side for dipping or drizzle the feta over the artichokes. Delicious either way of course!

Could not be easier, but don’t let the ease fool you, this recipe is always such a crowd-pleaser.

We all need effortless appetizers to help make entertaining stress-free. Whether it’s just with family, or a group of friends, easy entertaining is always appreciated! And everyone will love these!
