Craving: Apple Pie or Baked Apples….Cinnamon Toast….Honey

Creation: Toast & Balsamic Apples

 

What:

• 1 Slice Whole Wheat – Toasted
• 1 Fuji Apple – Sliced & Diced
• 1/2 Tsp. Butter
• 1 TBSP. Balsamic Vinegar
• 1 Tsp. Kosher Salt
• 1/4 cup Shredded White Cheddar – Extra Sharp

How:

• Melt butter in small pan – medium high
• Stir in apples to coat & saute about 3 minutes
• Pinch of salt to bring out the flavor of the apple
• Reduce heat – medium
• Add Balsamic Vinegar – Allow apples & butter to simmer about 4 minutes so the apples get a bit tender but still have a bite & are fully coated…pinch of salt to balance vinegar & the honey about to be added
• Pour mixture over toast
• Drizzle with Honey & Sprinkle w/ Cheddar

Why:

• Something about the creaminess of the cheddar, saltiness of the balsamic vinegar & sweetness of the honey made this a perfect breakfast treat!

Certainly satisfied my craving…
