Steps:
- In an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crisp, about 5 minutes. Tear in half and set aside.
- Into the same skillet, add the brown sugar, onions and 1 tablespoon of the butter. Cook, stirring as needed, until the onions are golden, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
- Build the grilled cheese by spreading one piece of bread with the mayonnaise. Sprinkle half of the grated cheese on top, followed by the onions. Place the apple slices and bacon on top of the onions, then add the rest of the cheese. Spread the other slice of bread with the mustard and put it mustard-side down on top of the cheese. Spread the outside of the top bread slice with 1 tablespoon butter.
- Transfer the sandwich to the skillet over medium-low heat, butter-side down. Spread the top of the sandwich with the remaining tablespoon butter. Toast each side of the sandwich until golden on the outside and the cheese is melted, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Cut in half and serve.
SALTED HONEY APPLE BRIE GRILLED CHEESE RECIPE BY TASTY
Nothing says fall like apples, so why not pair them with creamy Brie for a warm and cozy grilled cheese? Made with a touch of honey for sweetness and whole-grain Dijon for a savory finish, each bite will have you coming back for more. Fruit and nut bread, such as raisin-walnut or cranberry-pecan, adds even more sweetness and crunch, but any rustic bread will work!

GRILLED CHEDDAR AND APPLE BUTTER SANDWICH
This is an adopted recipe that I found to be a nice twist on the traditional grilled cheese. The original chef's comments are as follows: "For some reason, I put a jar of apple butter in my grocery cart today (childhood nostalgia?)...I can't imagine I'm the only one in the world to come up with this, but I dreamt it up today, and I didn't see it on Zaar...so here it is! My 13-month-old daughter ate it right up and literally screamed for more! I used mild Tillamook cheddar cheese, but I think a sharp white cheddar would be amazing, too. Take care to toast it *s l o w l y* neglected (burnt) grilled sandwiches that are "scraped off" and presented scraped-side-down on the plate, are a dirty trick IMHO."

GRILLED CHEESE WITH APPLES AND APPLE BUTTER
If Cheddar on a slice of apple pie sounds good to you, you will love this twist on a grilled cheese sandwich, which marries salty and sweet elements between two caramelized pieces of buttery bread. Look for dark apple butter, with no added sugar, since it will have the richest flavor. Unlike most grilled cheese recipes, which call for building the sandwiches, cooking them on one side, then flipping, this one calls for cooking the sandwiches open-faced, then assembling them.The cheese melts more quickly and reliably if cooked this way. Depending on the size of your bread slices and your skillet, you may be able to cook two sandwiches at a time. You could also have two pans going, or just serve them as they are finished. To serve all four at once, just transfer the cooked sandwiches to a baking sheet in a 200-degree oven while you crisp up the remaining sandwiches on the stovetop.

Steps:
- Heat a large, 12-inch skillet over medium-high. Add 1 tablespoon butter, then add apples, shallots, rosemary and a pinch of salt. Cook, tossing occasionally, until apples are golden and softened, 8 to 10 minutes, reducing the heat if shallots threaten to burn. Transfer mixture to a plate; set aside.
- Rinse and dry the pan, and set over medium heat. Melt 1 tablespoon butter (2 tablespoons if you're cooking two sandwiches at a time). Spread one side of each bread slice with 1 tablespoon apple butter (this will be the inside of the sandwich). With the apple butter-side facing up, top four of the bread slices with 1 ounce Cheddar each; divide the apple mixture among the remaining four slices of bread. (Don't assemble the sandwiches yet: The topped slices are first cooked, then combined.)
- Add one Cheddar-topped piece and one apple-topped piece to the pan (two of each if your pan can accommodate it), drizzle 2 teaspoons of water in the pan, and cover. Cook until cheese is melted and bread is golden and crisp, 5 to 7 minutes. Reduce heat if bread is browning too fast. Sandwich the two pieces together, cut in half, and serve immediately. Repeat with remaining ingredients, adding more butter to then pan if necessary.
Tips:
- Use a variety of apples for different flavor profiles. Granny Smith apples are a popular choice for their tartness, but Honeycrisp, Braeburn, and Pink Lady apples are also great options.
- Choose a sharp cheddar cheese that will melt well. A good quality cheddar will give your grilled cheese sandwich a rich, flavorful taste.
- Brie cheese is a soft, creamy cheese that adds a luxurious touch to this grilled cheese sandwich. If you don't have brie, you can substitute another soft cheese, such as camembert or fontina.
- Use a good quality bread for your grilled cheese sandwich. A sturdy bread, such as sourdough or whole wheat, will hold up well to the fillings and won't get soggy.
- Butter the bread before grilling to help it brown and crisp up.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when grilling your sandwich. This will prevent the bread from cooking evenly.
- Cook the sandwich over medium heat so that the cheese has time to melt and the bread has time to brown.
- Serve the sandwich immediately with your favorite sides, such as soup, salad, or fruit.
Conclusion:
The apple, cheddar, and brie grilled cheese sandwich is a delicious and easy-to-make sandwich that is perfect for a quick lunch or dinner. With its sweet and savory flavors, this sandwich is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a new grilled cheese recipe to try, give this one a try.
