Servings: persons

2 teaspoons butter
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1 tablespoon brown sugar
3 large apples, peeled
3/4 cup apple cider or juice
3 tablespoons cider vinegar
2 teaspoons honey
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup walnut oil or canola oil
5 cups torn romaine
5 cups torn red leaf lettuce
1/3 cup thinly sliced red onion
1/3 cup dried cranberries
1 cup (4 ounces) crumbled Gorgonzola cheese

1
In a small heavy skillet, melt butter. Add walnuts and cook over medium heat until toasted, about 4 minutes. Sprinkle with brown sugar. Cook and stir for 2-4 minutes or until sugar is melted. Spread on foil to cool.
2
Core apples and cut into quarters. Slice apples, but not all the way through, leaving slices attached at the stem end. Place apple quarters in a greased 15x10x1-in. baking pan; fan slightly.
3
In a small bowl, whisk the cider, vinegar, honey, salt and pepper; gradually whisk in oil. Set aside 1 cup for dressing; drizzle remaining mixture over apples. Bake, uncovered, at 425u00b0 for 18-22 minutes or until tender.
4
Meanwhile, arrange the romaine, leaf lettuce, onion and cranberries on 12 salad plates. Top each with a roasted apple fan; sprinkle with cheese and candied nuts. Drizzle with reserved dressing.
