Caramelized Apple and Onion Bruschetta With Melted Brie

Ingredients

• 1 large white onion, thinly sliced
• 1 large baguette, cut into 1/2 inch slices
• 8 ounces brie cheese, rind removed
• 2 gala apples, cored and sliced into thin wedges
• 1/4 cup chopped walnuts, toasted
• 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
• 1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• salt

Directions

1. 1

   Heat Olive Oil in a pan to medium high heat. Add Onions, seasoning with a pinch of salt. Cook until they begin to turn brown and caramelize. DO NOT BURN!

2. 2

   Add apples, vinegar, and brown sugar. Reduce heat to medium. Saute until apples are cooked through and vinegar/brown sugar are absorbed.

3. 3

   In the meantime, slice the brie into pieces that are similar in size to the baguette slices. Place one slice of cheese on each baguette slice. Broil for about 2-3 minutes, or until cheese melts and bread is crispy.

4. 4

   Top each baguette slice with a spoonful of the caramelized apple/onion mixture. Serve warm.
