Ingredients
Scale
- 8 slices hearty white country loaf or French bread
- 2 organic apples, thinly sliced
- 250 g brie cheese, cut into thin slices
- 3 tbsp butter for spreading
- 4 tbsp hot honey butter (omit chili flakes if preferred)
- 2 tbsp salted butter (room temperature)
- 2 tbsp mild honey
- 1/4 tsp hot chili flakes (adjust to taste)
Instructions
- Start by slicing the apples and brie cheese.
- In a bowl, mix the salted butter and honey along with chili flakes until smooth to create hot honey butter.
- Spread butter on one side of each slice of bread. On the unbuttered side, layer brie slices, apple slices, and a drizzle of hot honey butter before topping with another slice of bread (buttered side facing out).
- Heat a skillet over medium heat, then place sandwiches in the skillet. Cook until golden brown (about 3–4 minutes per side).
- Once done, let them cool slightly before slicing in half and serving warm.
