BLEU CHEESE BRUSCHETTA with APPLE, BACON, NUTS & BERRIES

Course Appetizer, Side Dish
Cuisine American, Italian

Ingredients
  

  • Apples such as Honeycrisp, Granny Smith
  • baguette
  • bacon cooked until just crisp
  • bleu cheese crumbled
  • walnuts or pecans
  • dried cranberries or raspberries*

Instructions
 

  • Slice the baguette into fairly thin slices~thick enough for strength to hold toppings but not too thick to eat.
  • Toast lightly. Sprinkle bleu cheese or gorgonzola crumbles over toasts. This will be the “glue” to hold toppings on.
  • Top with a layer of apple slices then a piece or two of bacon. Sprinkle with more cheese.
  • Put toasts under broiler just long enough to heat and melt cheese.
  • Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle with nuts and berries. The melty cheese will help hold them in place.
