Easy Apple And Brie Grilled Cheese Recipe- Learn Like a Pro: I can’t wait for fall meals, the holidays, and colder weather this time of year! One of my favorite ways to quickly introduce fall tastes is with this Apple & Brie Grilled Cheese. Both children and adults enjoy this sandwich, which is perfect to prepare for a quick weekend meal.
For most people, apples are a major component of fall. Although there isn’t much of an apple-picking culture in Colorado, Betsy and I used to live in Washington, DC, and I kind of miss it. Bringing home an abundance of apples beyond your capacity to consume was as quintessentially American as it gets.
This Grilled Cheese with Apples and Brie is the ideal way to kick off fall and apple season. To make it work, you need to first sauté the apples with a little sugar and cinnamon, which is like making pie filling without the pie. After that, spread a generous amount of brie cheese over the bread.

INGREDIENTS
- 1 apple, peeled and sliced thin
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- 3 tablespoons softened butter, divided
- 5-6 ounces brie cheese
- 4 slices sourdough bread
INSTRUCTIONS
- Add the sliced apples to a skillet along with one tablespoon of butter. Cook until apple slices are tender, about medium heat. As they cook, sprinkle with half of the cinnamon and sugar mixture. Once the apples are soft, remove them from the fire.
- Slice the brie into thin pieces after removing the majority of the peel.
- Spread a half-ton of butter on each slice of bread to prepare it.
- Heat up a heavy-duty skillet to medium-low. Put the bread, butter side down, in the skillet. Place half of the apple mixture and the brie on top. Place the second slice of bread on top.
- Sandwiches should be cooked for 3–4 minutes on each side, watching out not to burn the bread, or until the brie melts and the bread gets toasted and browned.
- Serve while warm.

FAQs AND QUESTIONs
What apples work best for grilled cheese?
- These sandwiches will turn out nicely with any apple that you could use for a pie filling, in my opinion. Depending on your availability and preferred flavors, I’ve used granny smith, gala, and honeycrisp apples. All of them work wonderfully.
- The larger, delicious red apples can become a little mushy if they are cooked, so I would avoid those.
What bread works well for these sandwiches?
- I used a sturdy sandwich bread on this particular day, but I’ve used a variety of breads for this grilled cheese.
