CARAMELIZED APPLE AND ONION BRUSCHETTA WITH MELTED BRIE
I posted a Fresh Strawberry and Almond Baked Brie that I sometimes make a different way...with apples and walnuts. This gave me inspiration to come up with this Bruschetta recipe. It is great in the fall for dinner parties and other occasions.

Steps:
- 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!
- Add apples, vinegar, and brown sugar. Reduce heat to medium. Saute until apples are cooked through and vinegar/brown sugar are absorbed.
- 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.
- Top each baguette slice with a spoonful of the caramelized apple/onion mixture. Serve warm.
- Idea! - This appetizer is great for a dinner party where pork is the main dish.

I might as well jump on the Bruschetta Bandwagon! Experiment using local onions in your area! Also, try other similar hard cheeses in place of the Parmesan: asiago, fontina, pecorino romano, etc. From the cookinglight.com website with some changes.

Tips:
- Choose ripe, firm apples: Softer apples will break down too much during cooking and lose their shape.
- Use a variety of apples: Different apples offer different flavors and textures, so using a mix will create a more interesting dish.
- Cook the apples and onions slowly: This will allow them to caramelize and develop a deep, rich flavor.
- Use a good quality balsamic vinegar: A cheap vinegar will be harsh and overpowering, so look for one that is mellow and has a complex flavor.
- Serve the bruschetta immediately: The brie will start to melt and the apples and onions will lose their crispness if they sit for too long.
Conclusion:
Caramelized apple and onion bruschetta with melted brie is a delicious and easy appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet apples, savory onions, and creamy brie is irresistible, and the balsamic vinegar adds a touch of acidity that balances out the flavors. This recipe is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
