Grilled Apple and Cheese Sandwich

Apples are in season in the UK from August all the way through to the end of March (depending on the variety).

This snack is a firm favourite in our house, especially on the days when we’re in a hurry, the cupboards are a little bare, and I really don’t have time to go shopping! All you need is bread, cheese and apples, after all!

Ingredients:

(Serves 2)

2 slices of bread;
Enough slices of the cheese of your choice to cover two pieces of bread; 1 apple, washed, dried and sliced;

Method:

• Toast both slices of bread in the toaster

• While you’re waiting for the bread, slice your apple and the cheese

• Place the cheese slices on the bread first, then arrange the apple slices on top

• Place under the grill until the cheese is melted and starting to brown

• Devour in seconds (mind – the cheese is hot!)

Cupboard-To-Table:

7-10 minutes

Notes and Variations:

Try sprinkling the apples with sugar and / or cinnamon before grilling
