I love this Ham, Apple & Brie Crostini for an easy fall appetizer. You can’t beat the flavors – warm, melty brie cheese with apples and ham on crunchy crostini – yum! The addition of the apple definitely gives the appetizer a great fall flair. Best of all you can assemble them ahead of time on a baking sheet, store them in the fridge and throw them in the oven just before your guests arrive.
