Make Apple Chutney
Place chopped red onion, shallots, garlic and olive oil in a large skillet. Cook on medium heat until onions have become translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the grated ginger and minced garlic, letting cook until fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
Next, pour in the apple cider vinegar and honey. Stir gently to mix and coat the onions.
Stir in the granulated sugar, raisins, thyme, sea salt and pink peppercorn. Continue to cook on medium heat for about 8-10 minutes, stirring every couple of minutes. The liquid should begin to reduce and thicken.
Add the lemon juice and chopped apples. Carefully stir to distribute the apple chunks evenly. Cook an additional 5-6 minutes until the apples have slightly softened.
Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly. You can either serve your chutney warm on a prepared baguette slice or let cool completely and chill.
Toast Baguette
Toasting your baguette is optional. If you like a crunchy bread, toast lightly, if you want to skip this entirely and just top somewhat softer bread, that works too!
Preheat oven to 425 F (220 C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Slice a french baguette into 3/4-1 inch slices. Brush both sides lightly with olive oil.
Arrange slices on baking pan, place on middle oven rack and toast until lightly golden brown. I usually do 3-5 minutes, slightly crispy but not super crunchy.
Place bread on a cooling rack. Warm bread or cooled bread works fine from here.
Smear mascarpone cheese onto lightly toasted warm baguettes slices. Then spoon apple chutney on top of cheese. Enjoy!
