Apple and Brie Grilled Cheese is the perfect fall sandwich recipe! Turkey, brie, and fresh apple slices. Plus, a honey drizzle for a bit of sweetness.
Have I told you guys that I’m obsessed with sandwiches lately?
I’ve never in my life been a sandwich person. I don’t ever just make a sandwich for lunch or go to a sandwich shop.
But one day a few weeks ago, I was in a mood so I took the husky for a hike and spent the entire hike thinking about sandwiches.
Like, 3 hours of thinking about sandwiches.
When my phone had service, I was on Yelp looking up sandwich places in the area.
I got a sandwich on the way home and haven’t stopped ever since.
So to say that this Apple and Brie Grilled Cheese is my favorite thing I’ve made in a while is the understatement of the year.
I also have a Raspberry, Basil, and Brie Grilled Cheese if you are looking for more brie grilled cheese recipes!
Ingredients
- Bread – I like to use a thick, fluffy bread for this sandwich
- Fresh thyme – you can use dried thyme if you prefer
- Salted butter
- Honey
- Brie – cut off the rind and only use the soft insides of the cheese
- Apple – I like green apple because it’s a nice tart contrast to the sweetness of the honey but a honeycrisp would also be delicious!
- Ham or turkey
Instructions
- Make herb butter. Mix fresh thyme with softened butter.
- Assemble. Drizzle 2 slices of bread with honey. Layer brie and apples on one side. Top with other slice of bread.
- Spread butter. Smear thyme butter onto both exteriors of the sandwich.
- Grill. Grill the sandwich until the bread is golden brown and the Brie has melted.
