Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 large slices vegan bread of your choice (sturdy bread is better for crunch / flavor — we prefer sourdough // gluten-free if needed)
  • 1 Tbsp vegan butter (we like Miyoko’s with a hint of salt // use more or less depending on size of bread)
  • 4-5 Tbsp Vegan Cheddar Cheese (spread // or sub comparable amount of store-bought cheddar cheese slices or shreds)

Instructions

  1. Heat a medium cast-iron or non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  2. In the meantime, butter both sides of your bread.
  3. Once skillet is hot, add your bread and lightly toast both sides (~1-2 minutes) — this develops flavor and crunch on both sides of the sandwich.
  4. Remove bread from the pan and spread a semi-thick layer of vegan cheddar cheese on one side of both slices of bread. Then fold the slices together to make a sandwich (cheese in the center).
  5. Return sandwich to the skillet and continue cooking over medium heat, flipping a couple times until both sides are nice and golden brown and crispy, and the cheese appears melty and gooey (~5-8 more minutes — lowering heat as needed if browning too quickly).
  6. Enjoy hot. Slice in half for serving if desired. Best when fresh. Pairs beautifully with soup!
