Cambozola Prosciutto Apple Slices

Ingredients

  • 2-3 apples
  • 4-6 oz. cambozola or other soft blue cheese room temp
  • 5-6 slices of prosciutto di parma * cut in half lengthwise
  • Olive oil with a little butter
  • balsamic glaze or fig glaze
  • garnish with chives and/or black pepper

Instructions

  1. Slice the apples in thin slices 1/8-1/4" pieces through the middle. Remove the seeds but don't core apple. Wrap each piece of apple with the prosciutto.
  2. Add about 1 tablespoon of olive oil and butter to a cast iron skillet. Brown the apple slices on both sides. Remove from skillet. Top with slices of the cambozola or blue cheese. I used a culinary torch to melt the cheese a little more or you could pop under the broiler for just a second or two. Drizzle with the balsamic glaze or fig glaze and garnish with some chives and/or cracked black pepper.
  3. Enjoy!

Recipe Notes

*Note: I first bough the Boars Head prosciutto because it was about $5 cheaper than the prosciutto di parma, but found that the slices really were not long enough to wrap around the apple slice. I will but the prosciutto di parma the next time since it is about 3 " longer than the Boars Head and slice it lengthwise into two long pieces, using only one piece per apple slice. So, however many apple slices you have, buy about half that amount of the PDP or if you go for boars head, but a few more slices. Saw this recipe on Food My Muse blog
