Instructions

Butter one side of each slice of bread.
On the unbuttered side of two slices, layer brie cheese, apple slices, and a spoonful of cranberry sauce.
Top with remaining bread slices, buttered side out, to form sandwiches.
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook the sandwiches for 3–4 minutes per side, until bread is golden brown and cheese is melted.
Slice and serve warm.

Notes

Use leftover cranberry sauce from holiday meals for extra flavor.
Add a few arugula leaves for a peppery contrast.
Brie rinds are edible, but you can remove them if preferred.
