Ingredients:

Serving

24 1/4- inch thick slices of french bread , each slice about the size of a business card
2 tsp. walnut oil
1/2 cup. finely chopped walnuts
8 oz. blue cheese, crumbled
4 tsp. minced shallots
1/3 cup. dried cranberries

Directions:

Place walnuts in dry nonstick sauté pan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until toasted brown (about 6 minutes).
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Arrange bread slices on baking sheet. Brush slices with walnut oil. Bake about 5 minutes or until crisp.
Mix toasted walnuts, blue cheese, shallots and cranberries. Spread mixture on toast slices. Bake just until cheese melts, about 4 minutes. Serve warm from the oven. Good with a nice Zinfandel-Sapphire Hill is an excellent match.
