Turkey and Apple Sandwich with Bacon
An elevated grilled cheese filled with deli turkey, bacon, cheddar cheese, and apples.
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Sandwich bread slices, sourdough, white, etc. Use gluten-free bread if needed
- 2 pieces Bacon, cooked and drained
- 2 tbsp Butter, unsalted Can use salted
- 2-4 slices Deli Turkey
- 2-3 slices Apple, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup Cheddar Cheese, shredded or 2 slices of cheddar cheese Can use more
- 1/2 tsp Thyme, fresh Optional
- Black Pepper
- Flaky Salt Optional
Instructions
- Cook the 2 slices of bacon, drain and set aside.
- Heat 1 tbsp of butter in a medium size skillet on medium low heat.
- Once the butter is melted, sprinkle 1/4 tsp of the fresh thyme and a bit of black pepper over the melted butter, then place a slice of bread on top of the butter mixture. Swirl the bread around so it gets coated in the butter.
- Add the shredded cheddar cheese, turkey, apple slices, and bacon.
- Butter the top slice of bread with the remaining butter. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 tsp of fresh thyme and a bit of black pepper on top of the buttered bread. Top the sandwich.
- Cover the sandwich to help the cheese melt. Once the bottom is browned flip the sandwich and cover again for another 1 minute or so.
- Remove from the skillet and sprinkle with some flaky salt.
Notes
Adjust quantities if making more than one sandwich or if using a larger slice of bread.
If using salted butter omit the flaky salt at the end to prevent the sandwich from becoming to salty.
