Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 slices Sourdough bread
- 2 slices Cheddar cheese
- 2 slices Ham
- 0.5 whole Apple (preferably Honeycrisp or Granny Smith)
- 1 tablespoon Mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Butter
Instructions
Slice the apple into thin, even slices using a sharp knife or a mandoline. Set aside.
In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise and Dijon mustard together until well combined.
Spread the mayonnaise and mustard mixture evenly on one side of each slice of sourdough bread.
Layer one slice of bread (spread side up) with one slice of cheddar cheese, followed by the ham slices, apple slices, and the second slice of cheddar cheese. Top with the second slice of bread, spread side down.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add butter. Allow the butter to melt evenly across the surface.
Carefully place the sandwich in the skillet. Cook for 2–3 minutes on one side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and crisp.
Flip the sandwich and cook for another 2–3 minutes until the other side is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it cool for 1–2 minutes to allow the cheese to set slightly.
Slice the sandwich in half and serve warm. Enjoy your Cheddar Apple Ham Sandwich!
