Ingredients
- 4 slices sourdough bread
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- 1 apple (e.g., Honeycrisp or Granny Smith)
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 teaspoons honey
- 0.25 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Directions
Step 1
Wash the apple and slice it into thin, even rounds or wedges. Remove the core and seeds.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix the honey and ground cinnamon until combined. Set aside.
Step 3
Spread 1/2 tablespoon of butter on one side of each bread slice.
Step 4
Place two bread slices, buttered-side down, on a clean plate or surface.
Step 5
Top each bread slice with a layer of cheese, followed by a few apple slices.
Step 6
Drizzle a small amount of the honey-cinnamon mixture over the apples.
Step 7
Add another slice of cheese on top, then place the remaining bread slices on top, buttered-side up, to form sandwiches.
Step 8
Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat.
Step 9
Carefully place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on one side, pressing gently with a spatula to help the bread crisp up and the cheese start melting.
Step 10
Flip the sandwiches and cook an additional 3-4 minutes on the other side until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
Step 11
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them rest for 1-2 minutes before slicing in half.
Step 12
Serve warm and enjoy!
