Ease into fall flavors with this easy peasy crowd pleasing salad because burrata isn’t just for tomatoes, y’all! I love burrata best paired with something sweet. From figs and honeycomb to sweet crackers and bread, I have found burrata’s true soulmate to be a little something sweeter than tomatoes. This salad is so quick, simple, and crowd pleasing. Plus, it’ll give you an excuse to go apple picking!
1 apple - cored and thinly sliced into rounds
1 pear - cored and thinly sliced into rounds
1 to 2 balls burrata cheese
1/2 candied walnuts
1/4 dried cranberries
Kosher salt
1/4 cup good quality extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
Ground cinnamon
On a large serving platter, layer the apple and pear slices. Tear the burrata cheese over the top. Evenly add the walnuts and cranberries over the cheese. Sprinkle the entire salad lightly with salt. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, maple syrup, and apple cider vinegar. Drizzle the dressing over top and sprinkle with cinnamon.
