Spread a thin layer of softened butter on the cut sides of each baguette piece.
Generously slather fig jam on top of the butter, covering the entire surface.
Layer thin slices of Granny Smith apple on one half of the baguette.
Add slices of prosciutto over the apples, then layer with slices of brie cheese.
Sprinkle a pinch of salt and freshly cracked pepper over the fillings.
