Written by , Posted in Appetizers, Cheese, Fruit

 

Gruyère and Apple Toasts
Author: Rachel Oberg – De Ma Cuisine
Ingredients
  • 4 slices bread (like Sourdough or French)
  • 1/2 apple, thinly sliced
  • 4 slices Gruyère, cut into thin sticks
  • 4 slices caramelized onion cheddar cheese
  • 1 clove garlic, 4 garlic chives, chopped
  • cream cheese (opt.).
Instructions
  1. Rub garlic on bread (if bread is frozen, it works best). Top with cream cheese (opt.), garlic chives, apple, gruyere and cheddar.
  2. Broil 5-10 minutes, until the cheese is browned and bubbly (I used the toaster oven – in the oven broiler watch it carefully as it may need less time).

Warm bruléed pears topped with creamy vanilla bean ice cream. The perfect way to end a special meal.
