Brie and Apricot Jam Grilled Cheese

 This post contains affiliate links.

  Earlier in the month I reviewed The Happy Sandwich Cookbook by Jason Goldstein. You can find that review here. In the comments, Gina mentioned wanting to see the recipe for the brie and apricot sandwich, so girl, this post is for you. I have to admit, this sandwich is delicious. In fact, I have yet to find one in the cookbook that I didn’t enjoy. This is the last recipe that I’m going to give you from the cookbook, you’re just going to have to buy a copy of your own. Trust me when I tell you that you certainly will not regret it.

Brie and Apricot Jam Grilled Cheese

8 T. apricot jam or orange marmalade

¼ c. chopped roasted hazelnuts

1 wheel double cream brie, sliced

Mayonnaise

8 slices sourdough bread

 Spread mayonnaise on both sides of each slice of bread.* Spread some jam on one side of each slice of bread, then sprinkle chopped hazelnuts onto the jam. Lay some brie slices on the bread, fanning them out to cover the slice. Place another slice of bread on top. Cook in a pan on medium heat for three minutes per side.

 *I only spread mayonnaise on one side of each slice of bread. This is done in place of butter, and it facilitates the most beautiful, even, golden brown toastiness that you can imagine.
