Grilled Cheese Sandwich with Sliced Apples
This grilled cheese recipe pairs the nutty flavor of Dofino® Fontina with apple slices.
Ingredients
1/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons butter, softened, divided
2 Granny Smith apples, cored and thinly sliced
4-6 tablespoons sugar, to taste
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
8 thick slices rustic round loaf bread (French or Italian)
8 thin slices Dofino Fontina
Methods
Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add apples, sugar, cinnamon and cardamom; cook about 7 minutes, stirring frequently until most of the apple juices are reduced and the fruit is coated with a syrup. Remove pan from heat. Set aside.
Place four slices of the bread on a griddle. Top each with one slice of Dofino Fontina, 1/4 of the spiced apples, another slice of Havarti and top with remaining slices of bread.
Place griddle over medium heat. Brown on each side 3 to 5 minutes, until golden and Havarti begins to melt. Cool 5 minutes before serving.
