A Christmas menu without a nice Christmas appetizer to start with is not finished, right? I was asked for a nice duck breast recipe. I only discovered duck breast a little later in my life. During our trips to France I regularly saw it on the map. This taught me to appreciate it, and nowadays you can get duck breast all year round. So it is not just a Christmas dish anymore.

It is true that it is easy to obtain at this time because it is somewhat part of Christmas. Hence this Christmas appetizer with apple and duck breast. A nice glass to wake up your taste buds for what else will be on the table. You can also serve it very well as an intermediate dish.
Christmas amuse-bouche with apple and duck breast
Making a duck breast recipe is not complicated at all, as you can see with this Christmas amuse-bouche. The meat has a deep flavor and a bit of a "wild" feeling. Those types of meat are often experienced as a bit "heavier". If you compare it with a piece of chicken fillet, you can see from the color alone that there is a big difference. That's how you should see it with the taste of this meat.
So, I don't think duck breast needs much extra. A little salt and pepper is sufficient, but in this case an addition of a fine apple with a touch of cinnamon can do wonders. The combination of these simple flavors creates a delicious and surprising dish.
Here you will find the complete recipe with all the ingredients you need. I hope you have fun preparing the dish below.

I made this recipe twice, once as described, 2nd time I replaced the game with mango and whipped the ricotta and added a tablespoon of honey, personally a delicious improvement

Serve the apple warm or cold?
Hi, she bakes them first so when you serve them they will be lukewarm. Enjoy, regards Francine
Can you also bake the apple in advance and then store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for a few days?
Hi a few days is a lot, I would prepare it max 1 or 2 days beforehand. Greetings Francine
Delicious !
