On the unbuttered side of one slice of bread, spread the applesauce evenly to cover the surface.
Sprinkle the ground cinnamon evenly over the applesauce. If desired, sprinkle the granulated sugar on top for added sweetness.
Place the second slice of bread on top of the applesauce layer, buttered side facing up, to form a sandwich.
Place the sandwich in the heated skillet, buttered side down. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the bottom is golden brown and crispy.
Flip the sandwich carefully with a spatula and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes, until evenly golden and melty inside.
Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it rest for 1-2 minutes before slicing and serving.
