Ingredients
- 1 duck breast
- 2 apples
- 30g butter
- 30 g of sugar
- 1 tbsp. teaspoon of lemon juice
- 1 baguette
- Salt, pepper
- A few thyme leaves.
Preparation
- Preheat the oven at 180°C (th. 6).

Cook for about 6 minutes, regularly removing the cooking fat. When the duck begins to brown, turn it over and sear each side over a higher heat for 1 min.
- Place the duck breast in a baking dish and bake for 5 minutes.
- Cut slice the bread and lightly toast them. Cut the duck breast into slices then arrange them on the pieces of baguette.
- Add a spoonful of apples and a few thyme leaves on each toast. Salt and pepper lightly.
