Instructions

Make the Orange Cranberry Compote
2 Add the orange segments, 3 tablespoons of sugar, cranberry sauce, orange zest, orange juice and lemon juice to a medium saucepan. Season with a pinch of kosher salt, and give it a stir.
3 Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, allowing to cook for 10-15 minutes.
4 Taste the compote as it thickens and add additional sugar, if necessary. (Do this to your taste, obviously. If you like a sweeter compote, add 1-2 more tablespoons of sugar here until it tastes ideal. We&#39;re starting with 3 tablespoons so it&#39;s more tart, and you can doctor it as needed.)
5 Let bubble until the orange breaks down completely, about 20 minutes.
6 Transfer to a mason jar, and let cool to room temperature.
7 Store in the refrigerator until time to serve.
Make the Crostini
9 Toast and slice the baguette into rounds.
10 Serve the warm bread alongside the compote with a spoon and a small bowl of crumbled feta cheese.
11 Allow guests to prepare their bruschetta to their liking, and enjoy!
