Apple Cheese Melts Recipes

Steps:

• Set oven control to broil. Place bread on ungreased cookie sheet. Broil with tops about 4 inches from heat until golden brown; turn. Spread applesauce on bread slices. Place half of apple rings on each bread slice. Top with cheeses. Broil just until cheese begins to melt.

Steps:

• Arrange bread on a baking sheet; spread tops with half of the butter. Broil 4-6 in. from the heat for 1-2 minutes or until lightly toasted., Turn bread over; spread tops with remaining butter. Layer with the mozzarella cheese, apple slices and Gouda cheese. Broil 3-4 minutes longer or until cheese is melted.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F.
• Cut cheese slices diagonally in half. Mix sugar and cinnamon in medium bowl. Add apples; toss to coat.
• Place crackers on baking sheet; top with cheese and apples.
• Bake 4 to 5 min. or until cheese is melted. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Roll out pie crust lengthwise to fit into the bottom a 13x9-inch baking dish with a good 1/2-inch of the crust up all sides.
• Mix apple pie filling, ricotta cheese, egg, and shredded Cheddar cheese together in a bowl; pour over the pastry and flatten into a smooth layer.
• Mix flour, brown sugar, salt, and cinnamon together in a separate bowl. Mash butter into the flour mixture with a fork or pastry cutter until mixture is crumbly. Sprinkle over the apple pie mixture in the pan.
• Bake in preheated oven until crust is a good caramel-brown color, 15 to 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Whisk together sugar & cinnamon in medium bowl, then add apple slices, & toss to coat.
• Cut cheese slices in half diagonally.
• Place crackers on a baking sheet, & top each with 1 cheese slice & 2 apple slices.
• Bake 4-5 minutes, until cheese is melted.
• Serve warm.

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium. Add the onions and salt and cook, tossing frequently, until the onions turn creamy and golden, 15 to 18 minutes.
• Add thyme and red-pepper flakes and stir for another 30 to 45 seconds until fragrant. Transfer the onions to a small bowl and stir in the goat cheese and olives.
• Place 4 slices of bread on the counter and divide the onion mixture among them, spreading to the edges. Top with the apple or pear slices, then the remaining bread, pressing down gently to adhere.
• Wipe the same skillet down with a paper towel, then add 1 to 2 teaspoons olive oil (or more as needed to coat the bottom of the pan) and heat over medium. Working in batches, if needed, add the sandwiches and cook 1 to 2 minutes per side, pressing them gently to compress them as they cook, until the bread is toasted and deeply golden brown. If working in batches, add more olive oil as needed and cook remaining sandwiches. Slice and serve.

Steps:

• Carefully warm applesauce in a sauce pan (applesauce can scorch easily due to its sugar content.) Figure approximately 1 cup applesauce per person.
• Meanwhile, slice the cheddar cheese into 1/4 inch cubes.
• Ladle the warm applesauce into bowls and immediately scatter the cheddar cubes and almonds on top. The cheese will begin to melt from the heat of the warmed applesauce.
• Also good as a topping on a bowl of steel cut oatmeal.

Steps:

• Makes 2 servings.
• Preheat broiler.
• Arrange toasts in 1 layer in a shallow baking pan. Mash together butter and curry powder and spread on toasts. Arrange apple on toasts, then top with watercress and cover evenly with cheese. (Tuck watercress under cheese to prevent it from burning.)
• Broil sandwiches about 6 inches from heat until cheese is melted and lightly browned, 3 to 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spread half the bread slices with mustard. Layer with cheddar, ham, apple, and more cheddar, dividing evenly. Top with remaining bread slices. Lightly butter both sides of sandwiches.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, cook sandwiches, turning once, until bread is golden, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer sandwiches to a rimmed baking sheet. Bake in oven until cheddar is melted, about 5 minutes. Cut each sandwich in half on the diagonal, and serve warm.

Steps:

• Turn on the grill. Season the chops on both sides with a good sprinkling of salt and pepper. Grill under a moderate heat for 12-16 minutes, turning once, until just cooked.
• Add the topping. Thinly slice the cheese (don't worry if it breaks up a bit). Spoon the apple sauce over the chops and top each one with a couple of slices of cheese. Slide back under the grill for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and tinged brown. Serve with mashed potatoes and a green veg such as leeks or broccoli, and with any melted cheesy bits from the bottom of the pan.
