Instructions

  1. Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy, flipping as needed. Transfer the bacon to a paper towel lined plate. Allow to cool. Then crumble 6 slices, and cut the remaining 2 slices into 2-3" lengths.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine half of the softened butter with the crumbled bacon until fully incorporated.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the remaining butter and salt.
  4. On a food-safe board or large platter, spread the butter in rows - alternate between the bacon butter and plain butter, until all the butter is used. The butter should be soft but not overly soft or melty. Apply in swirls to add visual appeal (see photos in post).
  5. Top the butter with dollops of jam.
  6. Sprinkle the pecans, pistachios, dried cranberries, and dried figs over butter.
  7. Drizzle honey over the top. Rough chop some of the fresh rosemary to equal 2 teaspoons and sprinkle it over the top. Add the rest of the rosemary for garnish. Tuck the larger bacon pieces into the butter board as well.
  8. Preheat oven to 350° F. Slice the French baguette into ½" thick slices and place them on a baking sheet. Toast for 5 to 10 minutes total, flipping halfway in between, until baked to your desired crispness.
  9. Serve the butter board immediately while the bread is still warm and crispy, to allow the butter to melt a bit when added to the bread.
