Ingredients
- 4 slices sourdough bread
- 100 grams blue cheese
- 60 grams walnuts
- 1 medium apple (crisp variety like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Place the walnuts on a baking tray and toast them in the oven for 5 minutes, or until they smell fragrant. Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly, then roughly chop them.
Step 3
While the walnuts toast, thinly slice the apple into even slices. There's no need to peel it unless you prefer to.
Step 4
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Once melted, add the apple slices and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, until they soften slightly and have a light golden color. Remove from heat and set aside.
Step 5
Lightly toast the sourdough bread slices in a toaster or under a broiler until golden and crisp.
Step 6
Evenly spread the blue cheese over each slice of toasted sourdough. The heat from the toast will help the cheese soften slightly.
Step 7
Top the blue cheese layer with the sautéed apple slices and sprinkle the chopped walnuts over the top.
Step 8
Drizzle each toast with honey for a touch of sweetness and, if desired, sprinkle a few fresh thyme leaves for added flavor.
Step 9
Serve immediately while the toast is still warm and enjoy!
