Ingredients
- 4 slices Sourdough bread
- 4 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 1 medium Granny Smith apple
- 4 slices Cooked bacon
- 2 slices Cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
Directions
Step 1
Spread 1 tablespoon of cream cheese evenly on one side of each slice of sourdough bread.
Step 2
Core and thinly slice the Granny Smith apple, ensuring the slices are even for consistent cooking.
Step 3
On two of the slices of bread (cream cheese side up), layer the apple slices, 2 slices of cooked bacon, and 1 slice of cheddar cheese.
Step 4
Top with the remaining slices of bread, cream cheese side down, to form two sandwiches.
Step 5
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Allow the butter to melt completely and coat the pan.
Step 6
Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for 3–4 minutes on one side, until golden brown and crisp.
Step 7
Flip the sandwiches carefully, add the remaining tablespoon of butter to the skillet, and cook the second side for an additional 3–4 minutes, until golden brown and the cheddar cheese is melted.
Step 8
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them cool slightly before slicing in half.
Step 9
Serve warm and enjoy the perfect balance of creamy, salty, and sweet flavors!
