Scale
- 4 cups red grapes
- 1 tablespoon avocado or olive oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1/2 cup crumbed fresh goat cheese
- 24 slices baguette, lightly toasted
- 1/4 cup chopped toasted walnuts
- 1 tablespoon honey
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Coat a large glass baking dish with cooking spray.
- Stir grapes, oil, salt, thyme and pepper in a medium bowl. Spread out in one layer in the baking dish. Roast, stirring occasionally until wrinkled and caramelized, 48 to 55 minutes. Remove from the oven. Drizzle balsamic vinegar over the grapes, and stir to coat. Set aside.

Notes
Toasting Baguette:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. You can either slice the baguette before toasting or after. Place the slices or whole baguette on a baking sheet in a single layer (no oil needed). If the baguette is sliced, bake for about 10 minutes. If you’re toasting a whole baguette you might need to leave it in for longer. Check regularly to make sure it doesn’t burn.
