Ingredients

• 1 package Hillshire Farm Smoked Sausage
• 2 cups Swiss cheese, shredded
• 1 cup Sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
• 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 1 cup Dry white wine
• 0.5 cup Apple cider
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 0.25 teaspoons Nutmeg, grated
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper, ground
• 1 loaf French bread, cubed
• 2 medium Apples, sliced
• 2 cups Broccoli florets

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing the Hillshire Farm Smoked Sausage. Slice the sausage into bite-sized pieces and set aside.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, toss the shredded Swiss cheese and sharp cheddar cheese with cornstarch until evenly coated. This helps thicken the fondue as it cooks.

Step 3

In a fondue pot or large saucepan, combine the dry white wine, apple cider, and minced garlic. Heat the mixture over medium heat until it begins to simmer, but do not allow it to boil.

Step 4

Gradually add the cheese mixture to the pot, one handful at a time, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon or whisk. Make sure each addition melts completely before adding the next.

Step 5

Once all the cheese has melted, add the grated nutmeg and ground black pepper. Stir to combine and adjust seasonings to taste.

Step 6

Reduce the heat to low and keep the fondue warm while preparing the dippers.

Step 7

Arrange the cubed French bread, sliced apples, broccoli florets, and sausage pieces on a platter.

Step 8

Serve the warm cheese fondue with the prepared dippers, encouraging guests to use skewers or fondue forks to dip bread, sausage, apples, and vegetables into the cheesy mixture.

Step 9

Enjoy this hearty and flavorful autumn-inspired fondue!
