Ingredients

  • 1/2 of a baguette or 1 demi baguette cut into 16 slices
  • 4 ounces goat cheese softened
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 honeycrisp apples, cored and diced
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon orange zest
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt
  • 3/4 cup fresh or frozen cranberries

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Broil or toast the baguette slices until golden brown and crisp. Set aside.
  2. In a medium sized non-stick skillet melt the butter over medium heat. When the butter is melted add in the diced apples and stir. Cook the apples for 2-3 minutes then add in the maple syrup, orange zest and cinnamon. Stir occasionally and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
  3. Add in the cranberries and cook until the cranberries soften and start to pop, about 3-5 minutes. If needed, deglaze the skillet with a tablespoon of water. Set aside to cool for several minutes.
  4. Spread about a teaspoon of softened goat cheese on top of each slice of toasted baguette. Top with some of the cranberry apple compote and sprinkle with extra cinnamon if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • A firm apple that holds up well during cooking is best for this recipe. I recommend Honeycrisp or Pink Lady.
