The Best Brie and Apple Grilled Cheese
chef Laya
This Brie and Apple Grilled Cheese is a delightful twist on the classic grilled cheese sandwich. The creamy, melty brie pairs perfectly with the crisp sweetness of apple slices, all tucked between buttery, toasted bread. A touch of honey or Dijon mustard enhances the flavors, making this an irresistible combination of savory and sweet.
