Gooey melted cheese, sweet caramelized onions and crispy prosciutto come together in this savoury-sweet grilled cheese made for chilly days.

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp Organic Cacao Apple Crisp
  • 3 tbsp butter
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 onions, thinly sliced
  • 3/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh sage
  • 4 slices prosciutto (optional)
  • 8 slices of your favourite bread
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded gouda or fontina cheese
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar

Directions

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat, and cook the onions until soft (3-5 minutes)

  2. Add half the apple cider vinegar, cooking until the cider has mostly evaporated.

  3. Add the remaining cider and cook another 5 minutes or until the onions are golden and caramelized.

  4. Add the thyme, and a pinch of salt and pepper and remove from the heat. If you are adding the prosciutto, cook in a skillet over medium heat until crisp, and remove from the skillet.

  5. Brush the outside of each slice of bread with olive oil. Inside, layer the cheese, onions, prosciutto and a generous sprinkle of Organic Cacao Apple Crisp.

  6. In a skillet over medium-high heat, melt the remaining butter and fry each sandwich until golden, about 3-5 minutes per side."
