Caramelized Onion & Apple Grilled Cheese
Servings: 4
Ingredients
Caramelized Onions- 2 yellow onions, thinly sliced
- 1 Tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 Tbsp fresh thyme or 1 tsp dried thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
Grilled Cheese
- 8 slices of sourdough bread
- 2 cups white cheddar, shredded
- 2 cups gouda, shredded
- 1-2 EverCrisp® apples, thinly sliced
- Unsalted butter or olive oil
Directions
Caramelized Onions- Heat a heavy-bottomed pan over medium. Add butter. When melted, add onions and season with thyme, salt, and pepper.
- Once onions become translucent, reduce heat to medium-low and continue to cook. Stir every few minutes, making sure that onions do not burn or stick to the pan. Add a splash of water if pan becomes too dry.
- Continue cooking for about one hour, until onions become deeply brown and soft. Set aside.
Assembly
- Top 4 slices of sourdough bread with ¼ cup each of shredded white cheddar and shredded gouda.
- Arrange slices of EverCrisp® apples over cheese. Top with caramelized onions and second slice of bread.
- Heat a skillet over medium. Butter both sides of each sandwich and add to hot skillet. Cook for 3-5 minutes per side or until bread is golden brown, adjusting heat to ensure that sandwiches don't burn. Enjoy!
