Step-by-Step Instructions for Apple Butter Brie Grilled Cheese
  1. Begin by heating a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
  2. Spread softened unsalted butter generously on one side of each slice of sourdough bread.
  3. On the unbuttered sides of the bread, evenly spread 1 tablespoon of apple butter on each slice.
  4. Layer on the creamy Brie cheese, thin slices of apple, and a sprinkle of fresh thyme before topping with the remaining slice of bread.
  5. Carefully place the remaining buttered side of the bread on top, ensuring the buttered sides face outward.
  6. Transfer your assembled sandwiches to the preheated skillet, cooking for about 3-4 minutes on each side.
  7. Once cooked, remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them rest for a minute before slicing.

Notes

Use room temperature Brie for easier melting. Avoid overfilling with apple butter to prevent sogginess. Reheat leftovers in a skillet for best results.
