Preheat the oven to a suitable temperature for melting brie.

Slice the brie cheese and place it on top of each crostini.

Bake the crostini with brie in the oven for 4 to 6 minutes until the brie is melted.

While the brie is melting, prepare the apples by cutting off the bottom to create a stable base.

Slice the apples into thin pieces, cutting around the core to avoid it.

Chop the walnuts roughly, keeping the pieces relatively large.

Once the brie is melted, remove the crostini from the oven.

Top the melted brie with the sliced apples.

Drizzle a small amount of honey over the apples to help the walnuts stick.

Sprinkle the chopped walnuts on top of the apples and honey.
