Apple Grilled Cheese Recipes

Apple Grilled Cheese is perfect for fall! Smokey gouda cheese melted between tart granny smith apples is savory and delicious!

Now that fall is here, I have been whipping up lots of delicious ‘fall’ recipes. I was really excited to make this Apple Grilled Cheese with delicious smokey gouda cheese because not only is it reminiscent of fall, but because it is super simple and delicious.

I love making savory food, and this Apple Grilled Cheese is definitely that. When fall rolls around, I feel like food is so centered around apples, pumpkin, cinnamon, and sweet potatoes…as it should be. I just swoon over all of those things, and fall foods make me super happy. What is your favorite fall food? Is there something you associate with fall?

For this Apple Grilled Cheese sandwich I used a smoked gouda cheese, and it’s up to you if you use smoked or regular. I think it would be great with both, but the smoked gives it this bacon-y punch that’s really special. Pairing the cheese and apples is a no brainer (think cheese plate), but now you are sandwiching it between two crusty pieces of bread. Then grilling it up, you melt the cheese and it becomes perfection.

Ingredients

• 4 slices of fresh crusty bread I like sourdough!
• 1 granny smith apple peeled and sliced thinly
• 6 slices smoked or regular Gouda cheese
• butter

Instructions

1. Heat your skillet over medium heat. Assemble the sandwiches: bread, 1.5 slices cheese, apple slices, 1.5 slices cheese, then top bread. Repeat for second. Butter top slice of bread.
2. Lay the sandwiches with the buttered bread touching the skillet. Butter the top piece of bread. Place a sandwich press or heavy bottom skillet on top of the sandwiches to press them down. Cook for 3-4 minutes on first side, or until browned. Flip carefully and cook 2-3 minutes on the other side, allowing to brown (careful – second side usually cooks faster).
