It’s hard to improve a classic grilled cheese, but...gooey cheese, meet crisp apple and smoky bacon!
Preparation
STEP 1
Cover 4 slices of bread with half of the cheese.
STEP 2
Top with sliced apple, bacon and then remaining cheese. Cover with the second piece of bread.
STEP 3
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add enough butter to coat skillet. Place sandwich in hot skillet. Place another heavy pan on top of the sandwich to press the sandwich together. Cook for about 2 minutes until golden.
STEP 4
Flip and place pan on top of sandwich again. Add more butter as needed. Cook another 2 minutes or until golden brown. Repeat process with remaining sandwiches.
Options
A panini press is great to utilize when making grilled cheese. Just don’t forget the butter!
Sandwich can be made with any cheddar cheese or a combination of cheddar and blue cheese.
Some additions could include caramelized onions, Dijon mustard, pepper jelly, fig jam or arugula.
