Quick Goat Cheese Bread with Mint and Apricots

When I ate dinner at the Home of Nathalie Berrebi, a Frenchwoman living in Geneva, she served this savory quick bread warm and sliced thin, as a first course for a dinner attended by lots of children and adults. For the main course, Nathalie prepared rouget (red mullet) with an eggplant tapenade on top, something all the children loved.

Now I often make this quick bread for brunch or lunch and serve it with a green salad.
