Description
Ultra comforting and delicious, this grilled cheese uses pumpkin sandwich bread, pumpkin puree, three types of melty cheese a little fresh sage and some apple slices for extra crunch.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 slices pumpkin sandwich bread (I used the one from Trader Joes) or sourdough bread
- 1 ounces herbed chèvre cheese
- 2 tablespoons pumpkin puree
- 2 slices sharp white cheddar cheese
- 1 slice sharp orange cheddar cheese
- 1 small granny smith apple, sliced (about 8 slices)
- 1/2 teaspoon fresh sage, roughly minced
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, for spreading
Instructions
- Spread a layer of butter (about a tablespoon) on one side of both slices of bread.
- In a small bowl mix together goat cheese and pumpkin puree until thoroughly combined.
- Spread a layer of pumpkin goat cheese mixture on the non buttered side of each slice of bread. Sprinkle with sage.
- Top one side of the sandwich with cheddar slices and apple slices. Place the other bread slice butter-side-up on top.
- Heat a large, non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt remaining butter in the pan.
- Cook for 3-4 minutes until cheese starts to melt and bread has started to brown.* Flip over and cook another 3-4 minutes until cheese is completely melted and bread is golden. Remove from heat. Slice in half and serve immediately.
Notes
If using pumpkin sandwich bread (especially the Trader Joe's one), note that because it's a brown bread it darkens MUCH faster but is not burnt. Just keep a close eye on it!
