APPLE-WHITE CHEDDAR GRILLED CHEESE



Apple-White Cheddar Grilled Cheese image

On rainy days when we need comfort food in a hurry, I toast sandwiches of cinnamon-raisin bread with white cheddar, apple and red onion. They also are totally tasty made with vegan cheese and olive oil instead of butter! -Kathy Patalsky, New York, New York

GRILLED CHEESE, APPLE, AND THYME SANDWICH



Grilled Cheese, Apple, and Thyme Sandwich image

The cinnamon-raisin bread adds a touch of sweetness to the creamy Gruyere cheese, the apples add a little crunch and pop of tartness, and the thyme gives it freshness with just a tease of its flavor, just enough to make this sandwich special.

Time 20m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 teaspoons butter, softened
4 slices cinnamon-raisin bread
½ Granny Smith apple - peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
⅔ cup shredded Gruyere cheese
6 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves removed

Steps:

  • Spread butter on 1 side of each slice of bread; flip, so that buttered sides are facing down. Top 2 slices of bread with apple slices, 1/3 cup Gruyere cheese, and a sprinkle of thyme leaves. Place the other 2 slices of bread on top, buttered sides facing up.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add sandwiches to the hot pan and cook until bread has toasted and cheese has slightly melted, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip carefully using a spatula, pressing down lightly. Cook sandwiches until golden brown and cheese has melted, 3 to 4 minutes more, watching and adjusting heat if necessary to keep bread from burning before cheese has melted.
  • Transfer sandwiches to a plate, slice in 1/2 diagonally, and serve immediately.
