Ingredients
  

For the Bread
  • 2 slices Sourdough Bread Substitutions: Multigrain or brioche enhance sweetness.
  • 2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter Substitution: Use plant-based butter for a vegan option.
For the Filling
  • 2 tablespoons Apple Butter Substitution: Pear butter works well when apples are out of season.
  • 4 ounces Brie Cheese Substitution: Camembert or triple crème cheeses can offer a similar taste profile.
  • 1 medium Apple (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp) Prep Note: Slice thinly for even distribution within the sandwich.
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh Thyme Leaves Optional for a flavor boost.

Equipment

  • Non-stick skillet

Method
 

Cooking Instructions
  1. Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat for about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Spread a generous layer of softened unsalted butter on one side of each slice of sourdough bread.
  3. On the unbuttered side of two slices, spread about 1 tablespoon of apple butter each and layer slices of creamy Brie cheese.
  4. Add thin slices of apple and sprinkle fresh thyme leaves on top of the Brie if desired.
  5. Top with the remaining slices of bread, buttered sides facing out, and press down gently.
  6. Carefully place the assembled sandwiches in the heated skillet and cook each side for about 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown.
  7. Remove from the skillet, let cool for a minute, then slice each sandwich in half to serve.
