Cranberry, Apple, and Brie Grilled Cheese

Who knew this combination could taste so good? Another quick and easy breakfast ready in 10 minutes.

The other day, I was brainstorming what would be a good fit for my “12 days of Christmas recipes” series, and then I had the idea of making a simple breakfast sandwich – holiday inspired of course. When it comes to cranberries, apples, and brie cheese – all these three ingredients remind me of the Christmas holidays for some reason. Probably because I start seeing fresh cranberries for sale in the fall/near the holidays, apples are a symbol of fall, and brie cheese is just one of those delicacies that are usually enjoyed during holiday dinners.

That melted brie cheese, the cranberry jam, and thinly sliced honeycrisp apples – so so good.

Ingredients

• 2 slices of sourdough
• 1 tbsp unsalted butter (to spread on the bread)
• Brie Cheese (sliced)
• Apple (sliced very thinly)
• Cranberry jam

Instructions

1. Butter one side of each slice of bread.
2. On the unbuttered side, layer the brie cheese and apple slices. Top with the cranberry jam. Place the other slice of bread on top of the other.
3. Pan fry using a medium skillet over medium heat. Cover with a lid.
4. When the cheese starts to melt, flip the sandwich until both sides are golden brown. 
5. Slice and enjoy!
