Toast with Cheese, Apples and Caramelised Onions – Sponsored

I got a bit wild and I will not write how many toasts I had for the past weeks, I’ll just say that I liked each one of them.

There are meals that will always make me think of my childhood and home. Apple pancakes that my grandma used to make for me when I was a kid, tomato soup with noodles, crepes with homemade jam and so many more. I make them quite often myself and somehow Mia loves them as well (or maybe she knows that she doesn’t have a choice). What I make crazy often are cheese toasts. For once it’s breakfast and I kind of am a big fan of breakfasts, secondly, it’s delicious and I can never be tired of it. That’s why I got so happy when Leerdammer contacted me to develop a cheese toast recipe for them. It was like Christmas, New Year Eve and birthday at once.

I got a bit wild and I will not write how many toasts I had for the past weeks, I’ll just say that I liked each one of them. The whole thing is that they released this perfect toast and burger cheese which melts like heaven. This is a real thing, because not each cheese will melt well and give you this lovely chewy effect.

Toast with cheese, apples and caramelised onions reminds me of my home country – Poland, as we love apples over there. My parents have an apple tree in a garden and I think many people used to have it when I was a kid. I also love lavender, which makes everything smell so much better and has a unique flavour. Onion is my personal choice, as I love caramelised onion 😀  When you combine everything in one, you will achieve your perfect toast. And I mean! My trick is to put  more cheese on my bread as I want it to melt and touch the surface of the pan, so it’s fries on the edges a bit and has this unique flavour. Soooooo gooood!

There are more regional Toast & Burger creations available, so check it out!

The Recipe

YOU WILL NEED (for 2):

  • 1 medium onion
  • 1 medium apple
  • 2 slices of bread
  • 4 slices of Leerdammer Toast & Burger Herzhaft-intensiv
  • few springs of lavender
  • pinch of pepper
  • 1 tbsp butter for frying
  • ½ tsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
Let’s start with caramelised onion. Cut Onion in about 3mm slices. Heat 1 tbsp of oil on a pan and start to fry onion over a medium heat. After about 10 minutes, add sugar and fry 5 more minutes. Mix it from time to time, so it won’t burn. Add apple cut in wedges and a few springs of lavender and fry a few more minutes so it gets tender. Set it on the side.

Melt butter in a pan and start to fry slices of bread, when you switch on the other side, place two slices of cheese on both slices and cover pan with a lid. Fry till the cheese melts (about 3-5 minutes). Top toasts with onion and apples, season with a bit of pepper and enjoy each bite.

Enjoy, Marta

    Such a beautiful post. Your images are exquisite.
    Also makes me long to visit Portugal, a place I haven’t seen, but my great-grandmother’s family is still there.

    I’m a huuuuuuge fan of cheese toasts, but hardy ever eat them. Sometimes as an entrée I will do little cheese toasts, but that’s about all… and yet, I adore them. Crazay.
