By jarren

Excellent.

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup blue cheese
• 1/4 cup walnuts
• 1/4 cup honey
• 1 1/2 tsp Sriracha hot sauce
• 4 slices sourdough bread
• 4 oz Brie, rind removed
• 1 green apple, cored and thinly sliced
• 1/2 cup arugula, roughly chopped, divided
• 4 tbsp butter, divided

Preparation

Step 1

In a blender or food processor, combine the blue cheese, walnuts, honey and hot sauce until smooth.

Spread Brie on 2 slices of bread and top evenly with apple slices and arugula. Spread the blue cheese mixture on remaining slices and close the sandwich.

Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Melt 2 tbsp butter in the pan and cook sandwiches until golden brown, pressing down gently with a spatula. Add remaining butter to pan and carefully flip sandwiches, cooking until cheese has completely melted, about 5 minutes. Transfer sandwiches to a cutting board; let rest for 1 minute before serving.
