GRILLED BACON APPLE SANDWICH



Grilled Bacon Apple Sandwich image

This is a big, messy sandwich that sounds quirky but is delicious! Great for warming up in the fall and very kid-friendly. The proportions of this recipe are approximate, and feel free to change them to suit your needs. The bacon provides saltiness, the jelly provides sweetness, the apple provides tartness, and the cayenne pepper the spiciness. However, including all ingredients provides a more complex range of awesomeness.

6 slices maple-cured bacon
5 tablespoons peanut butter

5 tablespoons apricot jelly
cayenne pepper to taste
1 Granny Smith apple, cored and thinly sliced
3 tablespoons softened butter

TALEGGIO BACON AND APPLE GRILLED CHEESE



Taleggio Bacon and Apple Grilled Cheese image

Provided by Anne Burrell

Time 55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/4 pounds Taleggio cheese
12 slices bacon
8 slices rye bread
1/2 cup mayonnaise or 8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup Dijon mustard
1 Honeycrisp apple, peeled and sliced really thin on a mandoline

Steps:

  • Toss the Taleggio in the freezer for 20 minutes to get it really nice and firm (don't forget about it!). Remove the orange rind and cut the cheese into slices about 1/4 inch thick.
  • While the cheese is in the freezer, cook the bacon in a large saute pan over medium heat until brown and crispy on both sides, then transfer it to a plate lined with paper towels and reserve.
  • Spread each piece of bread with a thin, even layer of mayonnaise or butter. Spread the other side of each piece of bread with Dijon. Lay the bread down on a baking sheet with the Dijon side facing up. It will be a bit messy. This is what happens with grilled cheese! The mess is worth it.
  • Place an even layer of Taleggio on each piece of bread. Lay 3 bacon slices each on 4 pieces of the Taleggio-lined bread. Top the bacon with an even layer of apple slices (these are the bottoms, the ones with just cheese are the tops-together they make a pair!).
  • Preheat a griddle or nonstick saute pan to medium. You will most likely have to work in batches, so also preheat the oven to 200 degrees F to keep the finished sandwiches warm. Place pairs of tops and bottoms (not yet sandwiched together) on the griddle or in the nonstick pan and cook until the underside gets brown and crusty and the cheese begins to melt, 5 to 7 minutes. Flip the tops onto the bottoms so the cheese is on the inside. Give each sandwich a press, flip it over, and cook for 1 to 2 minutes more. Keep the finished sandwiches in the oven and repeat the process with the remaining tops and bottoms.

GRILLED CHEESE WITH APPLE AND BACON



Grilled Cheese with Apple and Bacon image

Provided by Tyler Florence

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 1/2 pounds assorted tomatoes (heirloom, vine and plum)
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, for garnish (optional)
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
6 cloves garlic
2 small onions, sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 quart chicken stock
2 bay leaves
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup chopped fresh basil
3/4 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Spread dijon mustard on 4 slices country white bread. Top with sliced cheddar cheese, cooked bacon and sliced Granny Smith apple, then top with 4 more slices bread. Butter the sandwiches, then cook in a skillet over medium-low heat until the cheese melts and the bread is golden, about 3 minutes per side.
  • Serve with Roasted Tomato Soup, recipe follows.
  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Core and halve the tomatoes (leave the cherry tomatoes whole). Heat a flameproof roasting pan over medium-high heat. Drizzle with the 1/2 cup olive oil, then spread all of the tomatoes, the garlic and onions in the pan. Cook, stirring gently, until the garlic is browned, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the pan to the oven and roast until the tomatoes are caramelized, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Remove the roasted tomatoes, garlic and onions from the oven and transfer to a large stockpot (set aside the cherry tomatoes for garnish). Add 3 cups chicken stock, the bay leaves and butter. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the liquid is reduced by one-third, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the bay leaves.
  • Add the basil to the pot. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth (or puree in a regular blender and return to the pot). Reduce the heat to low, add the heavy cream and adjust the consistency with the remaining 1 cup chicken stock, if necessary. Season with salt and pepper. Divide among bowls and top with the roasted cherry tomatoes; drizzle with olive oil.

GRILLED CHEESE WITH BACON AND APPLES



Grilled Cheese With Bacon and Apples image

I got this recipe off of Tyler Florence Ultimate. It was such a weird combo and I was in the mood for grilled cheese, so I tried it. WOW - I'll never have a plain old grilled cheese sandwich again! I'm adding some tweaks in his original recipe - this is how I made it. Bacon can be cooked in the oven or a skillet, I just prefer the oven so I used that.

Provided by lazy gourmet

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 40m

Yield 4 sandwiches, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 slices thick white bread, bakery preferred not processed
12 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, thickly sliced
3 tablespoons butter or 3 tablespoons margarine
12 slices bacon
1/2 green apple, thinly sliced (no need to peel)
Dijon mustard

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line baking sheet with foil and arrange bacon slices. They can be touching but make sure they do not overlap.
  • Bake 15-25 minutes depending on your desired tastes - I like my bacon extra crispy so I went the full 25. Remove and drain on paper towels.
  • Heat large skillet over medium heat.
  • Assemble sandwich; generously spread Dijon on 4 slices of bread. Top with slices of cheddar, 3 pieces of bacon, apple slices and additional cheddar. Place the remaining bread on top and spread with butter.
  • Place on skillet buttered side down and butter the remaining side. Cook until cheese starts to melt and bread is browned, about 4 minutes. Flip the sandwich and continue to cook until cheese is melted and bread is golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.

GRILLED APPLE AND SWISS CHEESE SANDWICH

GRILLED CHEESE WITH BACON, APPLE, AND SPROUTS



Grilled Cheese with Bacon, Apple, and Sprouts image

There's nothing like a grilled-cheese-and-bacon sandwich. When you add slices of crisp apple and fresh-tasting sprouts to balance the richness, why, you have yourself a new instant classic.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 slices extra-sharp cheddar cheese
2 slices rye or sourdough bread
2 strips bacon, cooked
3 thin slices Granny Smith apple
1/2 cup assorted sprouts, such as radish or adzuki
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened, divided

Steps:

  • Place 1 slice of cheese on 1 slice of bread. Layer bacon, apple, sprouts, and remaining slices of cheese and bread on top.
  • Spread half the butter on top of sandwich. Heat a medium skillet over medium heat, and place sandwich, butter side down, in skillet.
  • Spread remaining butter on top of sandwich. Cook until cheese is melted and bread is golden brown, flipping once, about 12 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use thick-cut bacon for a sandwich with a satisfying bite.
  • Cook the bacon until it is crispy but not too hard, or it will be difficult to chew.
  • Use a variety of apples for different flavor combinations. Granny Smith apples are tart, Honeycrisp apples are sweet, and Braeburn apples are a good balance of both.
  • Thinly slice the apples so that they cook quickly and evenly.
  • Use a good quality cheese that melts well, such as cheddar, Monterey Jack, or Swiss.
  • Spread the mayonnaise or butter on the bread before adding the other ingredients to help prevent the bread from getting soggy.
  • Grill the sandwich over medium heat until the cheese is melted and gooey and the bread is toasted.

Conclusion:

The grilled bacon apple sandwich is a delicious and easy-to-make sandwich that is perfect for lunch or dinner. With its combination of sweet, salty, and savory flavors, it is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you are looking for a new sandwich to try, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed!
