• I’m all about apples with grilled cheese but I have never thought to do apple butter! That’s such a great idea! MUST TRY

    1. The apple butter is totally the “secret sauce” on this guy. There’s something about it with the turkey and cheese that has me addicted. I hope you like it too!

  • Oh man, applebutter on a grilled cheese? My kind of sandwich! And I totally agree– grilled cheese is the kind of sandwich to be celebrated all year round :)

    1. I don’t know what possessed me to try apple butter on this, but I’ve been HOOKED every sense. And yes–viva grilled cheese!

  • Another delicious combination Erin!! I’ve never tried apple butter… do you make your own? I love the idea of combining sweet apple with turkey, cheese and a touch of fragrant thyme. Sounds so perfect for a quick weeknight supper in front of the television. And yay for grilled cheese month… I might try and start it up in Australia too (haha – wish me luck!). Yum!!

    1. You know Laura, I THINK about making apple butter every fall…then somehow end up with apple pie instead, lol. It’s available in every grocery store here, but if you can’t find it down under, you can definitely make your own. I think it even works in the crockpot! And YES for bringing grilled cheese month to Australia. The country will thank you :)

  • What a crazy combination! I love it! Im all about these fun grilled cheese! And I loove apple butter!

    1. You think it’s crazy…till you taste it :) If you love apple butter, then this sandwich was made for you Alaina!

  • Apples with sharp cheddar is only my most favorist thing in the whole wide world! And then the combination of turkey with the crispy bread, I have reached grilled cheese nirvana.

    1. Glad this sammie offers some of your favorite flavors! Apples + cheddar. Sounds like an odd couple, but SO GOOD.

  • Hi Reba,
    Although I buy a mass amount of apples every fall, they always seem to end up in my desserts ;-) I have heard that it’s pretty simple though and have seen quite a few crockpot recipes. Maybe this will be the year!

  • We have a restaurant here in town with a similar version of this sandwich. I thought it sounded strange the first time I tried it, but now I make it at home all the time:) Awesome flavor combination!

    1. Thanks Lisa! I’m a sucker for sweet+savory. And anything oozing with cheddar cannot be bad :) PS. I want to eat at that restaurant!

  • just made these sammies! soooo good! the sage was the perfect spice to round out all the flavors. James was super impressed.5 stars

    1. Yay!!! I’m so happy you both enjoyed them. This are one of our favorite recipes too. Thanks for taking time to share your review! Makes my day :-)

  • Mmmm your Apple Grilled Cheese looks so fantastic!! I just pinned it to my Main Dish Recipes board and I can’t wait to try it! Awesome pictures too- I love your photography! :)

  • I need this sandwich like right now! I seriously love sandwiches, so if I’m on an island with you and you’ve got the panini press, I’m in good shape! Yum!
