Description

This grilled cheese combines the best of both worlds – sweet and savory. I did not understand the whole idea of apple pie and cheddar, until I tried it. It’s an amazing and unforgettable flavor combination. This grilled cheese is great for breakfast, lunch, snacks or anytime at all. No pie guilt either….

Ingredients

  • 1 slice Or 2 Slices Sprouted Grain Bread - Plain Or Cinnamon Raisin
  • 1 teaspoon Salted Butter
  • 1 Tablespoon Chopped, Toasted Walnuts Or Pecans
  • 1 pinch Ground Cinnamon
  • 1 dash (optional) English Toffee Stevia Drops, Honey Or Maple Syrup
  • ¼ cups Diced Apples, I Like Pink Lady, Honey Crisp Or Granny Smith
  • 1 ounce, weight Your Favorite Cheese (I Like Sharp Cheddar)
  • Optional Garnishes, Listed Below

Preparation

NOTES:

Toasted nuts have so much more flavor. Chop your favorite nuts to the size you like, and place on a cookie sheet in a single layer. Bake at 350˚F until crisp, slightly browned and fragrant, about 8-10 minutes.

METHOD

I made this grilled cheese three ways. All were delicious.

Broiled Grilled Cheese: Set oven to a low broil with the rack on bottom 1/3 of the oven. Assemble grilled cheese on a cookie sheet. Take one slice of bread and smear a little butter on it. Press the nuts into the butter, sprinkle on some cinnamon and drizzle honey or Stevia on top of that. Top with apples and cheese. Put on a baking tray and broil for about about 8-9 minutes or until cheese is lightly browned, melted and gooey. Watch carefully so it does not burn.

Baked: Pre heat oven to 350˚F with the rack in the middle. Assemble grilled cheese on a cookie sheet like above either open faced or with two pieces of bread. Heat for about 5 minutes on each side until cheese is melted and gooey. If you want the top crispy and browned you can broil on low for about one minute, but make sure to watch carefully so it does not burn.

Stove Top Pan Fry: Put a small pat of butter in a cast iron skillet and heat over medium heat. Assemble grilled cheese as follows: Take one slice of bread and smear a little butter on it. Press some nuts into the butter, sprinkle on some cinnamon and drizzle honey or Stevia on top of that. Top with apples, cheese and another piece of bread. Heat over medium heat on one side until bread is lightly browned, flip and cook until the second side is browned and cheese is melted.

OPTIONAL GARNISH

fresh apple slices
a sprinkle of ground cinnamon
more honey, maple syrup or Stevia
