Roasted Red Grape Autumn Appetizer | Karri Perry Blue Ribbon Favorites

1 baguette sliced-toasted with 3 Tbs melted butter

1 lb. Red grapes-rinsed and dried

2 Tbs olive oil

Salt, cracked pepper to taste

Fresh thyme-to taste

Brie or Fontina, or Goat Cheese

Chopped pistachios 

Honey

On a small sheet pan, place the prepared grapes, drizzle with olive oil, fresh thyme and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Roast in the oven for 25-35 minutes at 400 degrees until grapes are softened, and somewhat caramelized.  Allow grapes to cool to warm before assembly.

Add cheese to toasted baguette slices. Heat in the oven on a parchment lined baking sheet to melt cheese and toast bread. 

Assemble Appetizer: 

Top warm cheesy baguette toasts with warm roasted grapes, sprinkle with fresh thyme, chopped pistachio, and drizzle with honey.

For a crowd or a self-serve option, on a platter, serve warmed-melty brie, toasts and roasted grapes, provide chopped pistachios and honey and guests can assemble their own bites.
