2 servings

4slices ciabatta bread

olive oil or butter

1garlic clove, halved

1Cosmic Crisp® Apple, sliced thin, about 4-5 slices per sandwich

7tomato slices, about 3-4 slices per sandwich

salt and pepper

5slices mozzarella cheese, about 2-3 slices per sandwich

balsamic glaze to drizzle

2 handfuls fresh basil

Drizzle olive oil or spread butter on each piece of ciabatta bread. On medium heat in a large frying pan, toast the 4 slices of bread until golden. Remove the bread from the heat and rub each slice with a garlic clove half to impart some garlic flavour. Set aside.
To make one sandwich, layer 4-5 apple slices on the bottom layer of the bread, followed by 3-4 tomato slices with a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Then, layer 2-3 mozzarella slices and drizzle the balsamic glaze over the cheese. Finally, finish by adding a handful of basil and top with a final piece of ciabatta bread. Repeat to make the second sandwich.
