A delightful twist on a classic grilled cheese sandwich, featuring the sweet and savory combination of apples and cheddar.
Lay out the bread slices on a clean surface.
Using whole-grain bread adds a nutty flavor and extra nutrients.
Place a slice of cheddar cheese on two of the bread slices.
Ensure the cheese covers most of the bread for even melting.
Thinly slice the apple and layer the slices over the cheese.
Use a mandoline slicer for uniform apple slices.
Top with the remaining bread slices to form sandwiches.
Press gently to ensure the sandwiches hold together.
Spread softened butter on the outside of each sandwich.
Use a pastry brush for an even butter coating.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the sandwiches for 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Cover the skillet with a lid to help the cheese melt faster.
Slice the sandwiches in half and serve warm.
Serve with a side of tomato soup for a classic pairing.
