Bon Appetit, May 2004 Ingredients:
12 slices bacon (preferably applewood-smoked) |
3 tablespoons butter, divided |
1 large golden delicious apple, unpeeled, cored, thinly sliced |
dijon mustard |
1 loaf focaccia bread, cut crosswise into 4 pieces, then cut horizontally in half |
16 ounces brie cheese, rind trimmed, cheese cut into 16 slices |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
Directions:
1. Cook bacon in large skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer bacon to paper towels to drain.
2. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add apple slices; saute 4 minutes. Remove from heat.
3. Spread mustard on cut sides of bread. Place 2 cheese slices on each bottom bread piece, top with 4 to 5 apple slices, then 3 bacon slices. Top each with 2 more cheese slices, then bread pieces. Press sandwiches lightly to compact.
4. Melt 1 tablespoon butter with 1 tablespoon oil in each of 2 large nonstick skillets over medium heat. Add 2 sandwiches to each skillet. Cover skillet; cook until bottoms of sandwiches are brown, pressing with spatula to compact, about 5 minutes. Turn sandwiches over; cover and cook until brown on bottom and cheese melts, about 5 minutes.
5. Note: Use a panini press for step 4 if you have one.
6. Enjoy!
