Ingredients
  

  • 2 slices cranberry walnut bread (or other bread)
  • 2 ounces (55g) Boursin cheese
  • 2 ounces (55g) Comté cheese, sliced
  • 1 Granny Smith apple, thinly sliced
  • Mayonnaise, for pan-frying

Step by Step Instructions
 

Step 1

  • Find a skillet with a tight-fitting lid that will comfortably hold your sandwich.
    Lay out your slices of bread. Spread one slice with mayonnaise, and place it spread-side down in a skillet. Spread Boursin cheese over the slice of bread in the skillet.. Add a layer of Comté, a layer of apple, and another layer of Comté.

Step 2

  • Now spread Boursin on the remaining slice, and place it cheese-side down to create the top of the sandwich. Spread the outside of the top slice with mayonnaise.

Step 3

  • Cover the skillet, and heat the sandwich over medium-low heat. Your goal is to melt the cheese at the same rate as you toast the bread; if the heat is too high, you will wind up with burnt bread and cold, un-melted cheese.

Step 4

  • When the cheese on the bottom half of the sandwich is beginning to melt and the bread is golden brown, flip the sandwich and finish cooking on the other side. Serve immediately.
