Fig Spread:
1 cup finely chopped dried figs
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup minced white onion
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1 pinch garlic powder
1 pinch cayenne pepper
1 pinch ground cloves
1 pinch ground cinnamon
Crostini:
1 (8 ounce) loaf French bread, cut into 1-inch slices
olive oil cooking spray
1 (8 ounce) round Brie cheese, cut into bite-size pieces
1 Granny Smith apple, cut into matchstick-size pieces
1 tablespoon oregano

1
Combine figs, vinegar, brown sugar, onion, ginger, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, cloves, and cinnamon in a saucepan; simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally, until fig spread is reduced, about 30 minutes. Transfer fig spread to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.
2
Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
3
Arrange bread slices on a baking sheet. Lightly spray both sides of each bread slice with olive oil cooking spray.
4
Bake bread slices under the broiler until toasted, about 2 minutes per side. Remove bread from oven and cool slightly, keeping broiler on.
5
Blend fig spread in a blender or food processor until pureed. Spread about 1 teaspoon fig spread onto each toasted bread slice; top with Brie cheese and apple pieces. Sprinkle each crostini with oregano.
6
Broil crostini in the preheated oven until Brie cheese is melted and browned, 1 to 2 minutes.
