Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 medium Yellow onion
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) Fresh chives
- 1 cup (grated) Cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup (grated) Gruyère cheese
- 4 pieces Sourdough bread slices
- 2 tablespoons (softened) Butter (for spreading)
Directions
Step 1
Peel and thinly slice the yellow onion.
Step 2
In a skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the sliced onion and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion softens and becomes golden and caramelized. Remove from heat and set aside.
Step 3
Finely chop the fresh chives and set aside.
Step 4
In a bowl, mix the grated cheddar cheese, Gruyère cheese, and chopped chives. Stir to combine evenly.
Step 5
Spread softened butter thinly on one side of each slice of sourdough bread. These will be the outer sides of your jaffles.
Step 6
Heat the jaffle maker or a stovetop sandwich press according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Step 7
Take two slices of bread and, on the unbuttered side, spread an even amount of the cheese and chive mixture. Add a layer of caramelized onions on top.
Step 8
Place the other bread slices, buttered side out, over the filling to form two full sandwiches.
Step 9
Transfer the sandwiches to the jaffle maker or sandwich press and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the toasties are golden brown and crisp, and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 10
Carefully remove the jaffles, let them cool for a minute, then slice them in halves or quarters if desired. Serve warm.
