6 No-Fail Appetizers to Bring to a Christmas Party

If you’re all about the appetizers during the holidays, chances are you’re looking for something new to try. One of our favorite apps this season is a mix of peppered maple walnuts paired with a quality local cheese (Edible Marin and Wine Country recommends a toma from Point Reyes Farmstead in California). Coat the walnuts in a mixture of maple syrup, butter, salt and pepper before baking and you’re good to go.

From grapes dressed up with a cream cheese mixture and topped with walnuts to a twist on the usual hummus that adds roasted delicata squash, here are 6 holiday appetizers we love for their simplicity and creativity.
