this easy sandwich is full of gooey white cheddar whose sharpness is perfectly offset by the tangy cranberries and crunch of the walnuts in the bread.

Ingredients
2thick slices grain cranberry walnut breadstore bought or grab my recipe for homemade in the notes!
1blocksharp white cheddar cheese, cut into thin slicesI like to buy the block and slice versus buying sliced cheese for maximum melt
Butter
Instructions
Take 2 slices of cranberry walnut bread and slather the outsides of each slice with butter (be generous - it makes for a better sandwich!)
Place sliced white cheddar on the insides of both pieces of the bread then sandwich the slices together
Heat a pan or griddle over very LOW heat (see note) then place the sandwich butter side down onto the pan. Cook, flipping until each side is golden brown (it will vary depending on ovens/griddles, etc.) and cheese is sufficiently melted.
Notes
Don’t be tempted to raise the heat to reduce the cook time - that results in unmelted cheese and burnt bread.
If you’re having a hard time getting your cheese to melt and your bread is browning fast, turn the heat to the lowest setting and place a pot lid over the sandwich. The steam captured will help the cheese to melt without burning the bread.
