½ loaf sourdough bread cut into thick slices
1 green apple thinly sliced
12 –16 round crackers
2 –3 tbsp apricot jam fig preserves, or orange marmalade
Optional: lemon juice for tossing apples to prevent browning

Instructions

Arrange the board

o Fan out slices of sourdough bread and crackers on opposite sides for variety.

Notes

This board is ideal as a light appetizer or snack, especially when you want something elegant with minimal prep. The tangy goat cheese pairs beautifully with the tart apple and sweet jam, and the mix of soft bread and crisp crackers gives great texture variety.
