Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 slices sourdough bread
- 3 ounces Brie cheese
- 0.5 medium apple
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.5 cup baby arugula (optional)
Instructions
Thinly slice the Brie cheese into manageable portions and set aside.
Core the apple and slice it into thin, even rounds. If desired, peel the apple beforehand.
Spread a thin layer of honey on one side of one slice of sourdough bread.
Layer the Brie cheese evenly on top of the honey, followed by the apple slices. If using baby arugula, add it on top of the apples for a fresh hint of peppery flavor.
Place the second slice of sourdough bread on top to form the sandwich.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Allow it to melt and coat the pan evenly.
Carefully place the sandwich in the skillet and cook for 2–3 minutes on one side, pressing gently with a spatula to ensure even browning.
Flip the sandwich and cook for another 2–3 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and the Brie is fully melted.
Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it rest for 1 minute before slicing in half.
Serve warm and enjoy your Brie and Apple Sandwich!
