Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

1/2 cup stone-ground mustard
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
8 slices raisin walnut bread
4 tablespoons salted butter, at room temperature
8 slices sharp Cheddar
12 very thin slices Granny Smith apple
1/4 cup sweet cherry pepper relish
One 8-ounce wheel Brie, sliced into 8 slices

Steps:

For the dipping sauce: Add the mustard, honey and mayonnaise to a medium bowl and whisk until combined. Set aside.
For the sandwiches: Heat a 12-inch nonstick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Coat one side of each bread slice with butter and place 2 pieces butter-side down in the skillet. Layer one piece of bread with 2 slices Cheddar and 3 slices apple. On the other piece of bread, spread 1 tablespoon pepper relish and add 2 slices Brie. Cover and let cook until the bread starts to brown and the cheese starts to melt, 2 to 3 minutes.
Flip the Cheddar piece of bread onto the Brie piece to create a sandwich, then cover again and let cook until the cheese is melting over the sides of the bread, another 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat the process until all the sandwiches are made. Serve with the dipping sauce and enjoy!

GRILLED TURKEY, BRIE, AND APPLE BUTTER SANDWICH WITH ARUGULA

Grilled Turkey, Brie, and Apple Butter Sandwich with Arugula image

Provided by Tyler Florence

Time 13m

Yield 1 sandwich

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

8 slices stone-milled rye artisan bread, about 1/2-inch thick
5 to 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1/4 cup store-bought apple butter
1 pound sliced fresh roasted deli turkey
1/2 pound brie cheese, thickly sliced
1 bunch arugula, stems trimmed

Steps:

Spread each of 4 slices of bread with 1/2 tablespoon of butter. Now spread each with 1 tablespoon of the apple butter. Top each slice of bread with a couple of slices of turkey, cover that with 2 to 3 slices of brie (enough to cover the turkey), and finally, arrange 2 to 3 arugula leaves on top. Spread the remaining 4 bread slices with 1/2 tablespoon of butter and lay them, buttered sides down, over the cheese; press gently.
Heat a large cast-iron or other heavy skillet over medium-low heat. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter and let it melt to evenly coat the bottom of the pan. Add as many sandwiches as will comfortably fit (either 2 or 4) and cook 2 to 3 minutes until the bread is golden brown and the cheese begins to melt. Flip and cook 2 to 3 more minutes to brown the bread. (Add another tablespoon of butter and cook the remaining sandwiches, if you need to.) Cut the sandwiches in half and serve hot.

BACON BRIE GRILLED CHEESE

Bacon Brie Grilled Cheese image

Old-school grilled cheese has its place, but my version stacks spinach, apple and Brie on pumpernickel. For a more compact sandwich, press a heavy pan on it while toasting. -George Wilkins, Mays Landing, New Jersey

### Tips ###

Choose a ripe, flavorful apple. Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn are all good options.
Use a good quality brie cheese. Brie de Meaux or Brie de Melun are both excellent choices.
Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of bread. Sourdough, whole wheat, and rye are all good options.
Butter the outside of the bread before grilling. This will help the sandwich brown evenly.
Cook the sandwich over medium heat. This will prevent the bread from burning and the cheese from melting too quickly.
Serve the sandwich immediately. This is when the bread is at its crispiest and the cheese is at its gooiest.

### Conclusion ###
