Honey-Cinnamon Apple Crusted Haddock

A re-creation of my "Baked Haddock with Berry Grapefruit Crumble" I decided to change up the recipe for something more Autumn-like. Still just as tasty with a hint of cinnamon, apple and honey. YUM! The Raw Unfiltered Wildflower Honey can be purchased at your local grocery store. The Blue Agave Nectar can be found at specialty kitchen stores such as HomeGoods and I buy the Archer Farm brand Almonds at Target.

"Honey-Cinnamon Apple Crusted Haddock"

Ingredients:

2 lbs. Haddock
5 tbs. Butter (melted)
1 tbs. Raw Unfiltered Wildflower Honey (melted with butter-regular honey will substitute)
1 c. Bread Crumbs
1 c. Honey Cinnamon Almonds (ground/milled)
2 tbs. Bacon Bits
3 Apples (peel 2 of them)
Blue Agave Nectar (Honey will substitute)
handful Cranberries (chopped) * I buy them dried
1/4 t. Nutmeg

Topping:

2 tb. Pecorino Romano Cheese (grated)

Directions:

1. Mix all the top ingredients (except the fish and 2 unpeeled apples) together in a bowl or processor).
2. Cut the 2 pealed apples into 8 slices.
3. Place fish in a greased casserole dish, drizzle Agave Nectar (or honey) over the fish and place the Apple slices in between or on the sides of the fish.
4. Spread the Crumb mixture on top of the fish and place uncovered in a pre-heated 400* oven for 25 min.
5. When fish is done, sprinkle the Cheese on top and cook for a few minutes longer.
Remove and enjoy!
