Why You’ll Love This Warm Boursin Dip

  • Ready in under 30 minutes, start to finish.
  • Just a handful of ingredients with major flavor pay-off.
  • Crowd-pleasing and elegant enough for entertaining.
  • Naturally gluten-free (just swap the crostini for veggie sticks or GF crackers).
  • Easily adaptable with add-ins like caramelized onions or roasted red peppers.

What Kind of Boursin Should I Use?

Boursin Garlic & Fine Herbs is the go-to classic and works beautifully in this dish. However, feel free to explore with other Boursin varieties like Shallot & Chive or Basil & Chive for a subtle twist. The key is to use the creamy variety that melts easily and brings herb-forward flavor. Avoid crumbly or firmer cheese types—they won’t deliver that dreamy texture.


Ingredients for the Warm Boursin Dip with Crostini

This recipe is all about highlighting Boursin cheese, and the supporting cast makes it shine. Here’s what you’ll need:

  • Boursin Garlic & Fine Herbs Cheese: The star of the show, it brings creamy texture and seasoned richness.
  • Cream cheese: Adds a smooth, luscious body and balances the tang.
  • Sour cream: Offers a slight tang and helps thin the mixture just enough for perfect dipping.
  • Fresh thyme or parsley: For that pop of fresh herbal brightness right before serving.
  • Olive oil: A drizzle for richness and golden sheen on top.
  • Black pepper: Just a pinch enhances the overall flavor.
  • Crostini: Crunchy, toasted bread slices perfect for dipping—or substitute with crackers or sliced veggies.

How To Make the Warm Boursin Dip with Crostini

Step 1: Prep Your Oven and Dish

Preheat your oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a small oven-safe baking dish or ramekin. This will help prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.

Step 2: Blend the Cheeses

In a mixing bowl, combine Boursin cheese, softened cream cheese, and sour cream. Mix until smooth—a hand mixer makes this extra easy, but a fork and some elbow grease will do the trick.

Step 3: Transfer and Bake

Spoon the cheese mixture into your prepared baking dish. Smooth the top, then bake uncovered for about 20 minutes, or until the edges are bubbling and golden.

Step 4: Garnish and Serve

Once baked, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with fresh thyme or parsley, and a light dash of black pepper. Serve immediately with warm crostini or crackers.


How to Serve and Store Warm Boursin Dip

This creamy dip is best served hot, right from the oven. It feeds about 6 people as an appetizer. Keep crostini or dippers nearby because it disappears quickly! For parties, you can double the recipe and serve it in a larger dish.

If you have leftovers (rare, but possible!), store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the microwave or oven until warm and creamy again.
