6 tablespoons butter, in chunks Ask a question about this ingredient
1/4 cup gruyere cheese, grated Ask a question about this ingredient
5 teaspoons cold water Ask a question about this ingredient
Mix flour and chopped butter in a large bowl, until the texture of the mixture looks like breadcrumbs. Stir in the grated gruyere.

First, make the medjool crunch in your food processor. Pulse together dates, hazelnuts, almonds, and butter until the mixture comes together. It will look kind of like quinoa.

Ask a question about this stepLayer the thinly-sliced brie on the apples, then sprinkle the medjool crunch over the brie.

Ask a question about this stepYUM!!! Would this work without any nuts? I can eat pine nuts, but that's about it.
im pretty sure it would. I would just roast the pine nuts to make sure they're nice and crunchy and then stick em in the food processor! hope you try it!
