Instructions
Make the Chutney
- In a medium pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add red onion and cook until translucent (about 6 minutes). Add ginger and garlic, cook until fragrant (about 3 minutes).
- Add vinegar, brown sugar, raisins, cranberries, salt and pepper. Simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add apples and lemon juice/zest (if using) and cook for an additional 10 minutes until apples are soft, but not mushy and falling apart.
- Chutney should be fairly thick and not runny. It will thicken a little as it cools, but if you have too much liquid at this point, increase heat to medium high and let it boil for a few minutes to cook off the liquid.
- Remove from heat and let it cool to room temp before storing.
Make the Bruschetta
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Slice the ficelle thin with a serrated knife, and brush with olive oil.
- Brush the sliced bread with olive oil. Place on a baking sheet, and toast for 10 minutes.
- When the bread has been toasted, remove from the oven.
- Smear the bread with goat cheese, then add the chutney on top.
- Serve immediately, and enjoy!
Notes
- Tips and tricks
- Customize the apple chutney to your tastebuds. If you don't like vinegar, add a little less. If you love ginger, add a bit more! The same thing goes for the cranberries and raisins. Also, if you aren’t a fan of goat cheese, swap it out for ricotta or even cream cheese.
- How to store and freeze: When the chutney has cooled to room temperature, transfer to an airtight food storage container. Keep in the fridge for 2-3 weeks or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
- Easy entertaining tip: Make the chutney in advance, and keep it in the fridge. Make this bruschetta for guests easy on yourself by having the ingredients on hand and simply putting them together!
