Take-out Tuesday, Sheet Pan Grilled Cheese Sandwiches

A good grilled cheese sandwich is hard to beat,

and if you need multiple sandwiches,

baking them in the oven is the way to go!

I recently made a batch of grilled cheese sandwiches

for CC’s Birthday Party

Instead of grilling sandwiches in a skillet, 1 or 2 at a time,

I baked them on a baking sheet in the oven

It works for a simple basic grilled cheese or a gourmet version

The possibilities are endless…

Of course there’s the basic white bread, butter,

and American cheese or Cheddar cheese

But you can use any type of bread you like~

You can also use any cheese or combine several different cheeses

and add in meat, fruit, vegetables, condiments…

Have you ever tried spreading the bread

with mayonnaise instead of butter?

It adds a little flavor tang

Spread butter or mayonnaise on one side of each bread slice,

put cheese slice or slices on the plain side

and top with another bread slice butter side up

Place sandwiches on a baking sheet

Bake at 375-400 degrees for 5-10 minutes*

Turn sandwiches over and continue baking for 5-8 more minutes

*Important Note:

Time and temperature will depend on a variety of factors

1. your oven

2. type of bread

3. how crisp you want the sandwiches

4. what’s in the filling

I highly recommend making one or two

to determine the best time for your sandwiches

before making a sheet pan full

You can also put some cheese on the outside of the bread

for a tasty Parmesan crust

Drool worthy, right?

Here’s a handy list of sandwich possibilites

You can also bake the sandwiches in a toaster oven

or in an air fryer

Again I recommend experimenting with time and temperature

to see what formula is best for you

My air fryer has racks like an oven

so you don’t have to turn food over,

both sides cook at once

I cook a grilled cheese {2 slices white bread, 2 slices cheese}

at 350 degrees for 7 minutes

Have you ever had a grilled cheese on brioche bread?

Insanely good!

Soooo,

are you craving a warm melty grilled cheese sandwich yet?
