Here’s how to make my Apple, Fig, & Brie Grilled Cheese:

- Slice the cheese into medium thickness slices and place on top of one slice of bread, on top of the fig jam.
- Cut the apples into thin slices and add on top of the Brie.
- Sprinkle with salt & pepper.
- Top with the remaining piece of bread.
- Heat a skillet over medium/high heat. Add a pat of butter to the pan. Once the butter has melted, add the sandwich to the pan.
