Ingredients

  • 4 slices hearty Italian bread
  • lb deli ham sliced thin
  • ¼ brick of Cabot Seriously Sharp Cheddar cheese thinly sliced
  • ¼ Lady Alice apple thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoon dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoon butter softened

Instructions

  • 1. Place a medium skillet over medium high heat. Spray with non-stick cooking spray.
  • 2. Spread butter onto one side of each slice of bread.
  • 3. Divide dijon mustard evenly over the bread slices, opposite side of the butter.
  • 4. Place a piece of bread butter side down. Arrange 3 thin slices of the cheddar cheese on top, followed by 3-4 slices of the deli ham, then 2-3 slices of the apple, followed by 3 more thin slices of the cheddar cheese. Top mustard side down with another piece of bread.
  • 5. Repeat to create the second sandwich.
  • 6. Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes or until lightly golden. Flip both sandwiches over, reduce the heat to medium low and place a lid on top of the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes more or until golden brown and the cheese has melted.
  • 7. Slice sandwiches and serve immediately.
