Fried Manchego Cheese with Lavender Honey
Report
This Fried Manchego Cheese with Lavender Honey is an easy appetizer recipe that's sweet, salty and seriously addictive! Buttery, nutty Manchego cheese gets breaded and lightly fried, then drizzled with a sweet and floral homemade lavender infused honey. This is definitely a recipe you want to make for your next party!

Ingredients
- 1 cup wildflower, clover or other light honey
- 1 tablespoon dried lavender flowers 2 tablespoons if using fresh
- 8 ounces (½ lb) Manchego cheese
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1 egg beaten with 1 teaspoon water
- 1 ½ cups Panko bread crumbs more as needed
- vegetable oil or other light oil, for frying
- salt for sprinkling (optional)
- Toothpicks for serving (optional)
Notes
- This recipe makes much more lavender honey than you'll need for the fried cheese. Store leftovers in the refrigerator and use in tea, on toast, on a cheese platter, etc.
- Double the recipe (not the honey) to serve 6-8.
