Ingredients

8 slices of excellent, hearty pumpernickel bread

¾ pound of excellent, very sharp orange cheddar cheese

1 Granny Smith apple, sliced very thinly

2 tablespoons of Dijon mustard

Salt and pepper

1/2 teaspoon of chopped fresh thyme leaves

Butter

Directions

Preheat a griddle or skillet on medium heat. Thinly slice the cheddar cheese, and arrange it on four slices of the bread. Cover with a thin layer of apple slices . Top the apple-and-cheese slices with the mustard-and-seasoning slices, to create the sandwiches. Melt a dab of butter on the griddle, and grill the cheese sandwiches, about 4 minutes per side, until the cheese is melted and the bread toasted and crisp.
