Gordon Ramsay’s ‘Idiot Sandwich’ Challenge
Buck and Ron join the ladies in the kitchen to try out “Cinnamon Apple Grilled Cheese” from Gordon Ramsay’s new cookbook Idiot Sandwich. Will it earn a thumbs-up from the team?
Cinnamon Apple Grilled Cheese Croissant Sandwich
Ingredients:
- 4 croissants
- 2 tbsp honey
- 2 tbsp softened butter
- 1 cup chopped apples
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp nutmeg
- Pinch of salt
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- ½ cup water
- Slices of cheese (your choice – cheddar or gouda work well)
Step 1: Prepare the Honey Butter
In a small bowl, mix softened butter with honey until smooth.
Flatten croissants with a rolling pin on a cutting board.
Spread the honey-butter mixture on both sides of each pressed croissant. Set aside.
Step 2: Make the Cinnamon Apple Compote
In a medium pot, combine chopped apples, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, lemon juice, brown sugar, vanilla extract and ½ cup of water.
Bring the mixture to a boil.
Reduce heat and let simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples soften and the sauce thickens.
Remove from heat and set aside.
Step 3: Grill the Croissants
Heat a skillet over medium heat.
Place two croissants in the pan. Cover with parchment paper and press down with a burger smasher for a few seconds.
Flip the croissants, add cheese slices on top, and cook for 1–3 minutes until the cheese begins to melt.
Remove from the pan. Spread the warm apple compote evenly on top of the melted cheese.
Top with another smashed croissant to make a sandwich.
Step 4: Serve and Enjoy!
Slice in half and serve warm. Perfect for a sweet-and-savory treat with a fall twist. 🍎🧀🥐
