1. To prepare the Brie: Place flour in a small bowl. Whisk egg and water in a small bowl. Place chopped almonds in a flat dish. 2.

To make the Apple Onion Compote: In a food processor pulse the apple and onion until they are chopped into 1/4- to 1/3-inch pieces. 5. In a medium skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the apples, onions and ginger. Saut? for bout 5 minutes until apples and onions are just tender. 6. Add the lemon zest, vinegar, pepper jelly and currants; bring to a boil.
