Ingredients
-
1/4 cup (50 mL) water
3 tbsp (45 mL) orange juice
12 dried apricots
1/2 tsp (2 mL) ground nutmeg
4 slices crusty, whole grain or whole wheat bread, toasted
8 thin slices of cooked ham, (about 5 oz/ 150 g)
1/3 lb (150 g) Canadian Camembert, sliced
Freshly ground pepper, to taste
Preparation
Preheat oven to 475° (250°C).
In a saucepan, bring water and orange juice to a boil. Add apricots and nutmeg. Simmer, letting apricots rehydrate for about 5 minutes. Once apricots have become swollen, continue simmering to reduce extra liquid.
Cover a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Arrange toast on cookie sheet.
Place a slice of ham on each slice of toast, top with apricots and cover with cheese. Sprinkle with pepper, if desired.
Bake for 5 minutes or until cheese is melted and golden.
Serve with fresh fruit or a green salad.
