Ingredients
2
slices
sourdough bread
1
ounce
gruyere
grated
2
tablespoons
caramelized onion
1
ounce
proscuitto
sliced thin
¼
granny smith apple
sliced
1
tablespoon
butter
salted
Instructions
Heat your grill to medium.
Butter bread and add gruyere, onion and proscuitto.
Close the lid for a couple minutes, checking frequently - this will allow the cheese to melt.
Add thinly sliced apple, close & enjoy!
Notes
Choose a variety of
cheese that melts well
(gruyere, gouda, swiss and cheddar are all favorites).
Pre-grate your cheese
in a bowl - believe me, it's worth the three extra minutes.
Block cheese
is always a higher quality than pre-shredded cheese and it doesn't dry out.
Grill low and slow on medium.
This will prevent the bread from burning while allowing the cheese to melt to a nice gooey consistency.
