Apple, Ham, and Cheddar Melt Sandwiches

Apple, Ham, and Cheddar Melt Sandwiches aren’t your average ham & cheddar melts! Brie cheese, apples, and apple butter make these a mouthwatering sandwich!

Apple, Ham, and Cheddar Melts are my favorite lunch in the fall.  In the town where we grew up in, there was a little restaurant that served ham, cheddar, and apple butter sandwiches. Sadly, this little restaurant was only in business for less than a year.

In the short time it was open, Emily and I ate there several times and ordered these sandwiches. We loved them! I tried a new sandwich recipe yesterday and they tasted JUST like the ones in that restaurant. They were delicious! I added apples and Brie to the sandwich and in my opinion it made them even better.  The crispness and sweetness of the apple slices greatly complements the melted cheese and warm ham.  The person that came up with adding apple to a grilled cheese is a genius!

If you are looking for a simple lunch recipe to share with guests or lunchtime visitors this is a good one! This sandwich recipe tastes oh so delicious and is pretty simple to put together.  These aren’t your average ham & cheddar melts! Enjoy!
