Grilled Cheese Dunkers

Mar 30, 2025Brenda Brink

6 sandwiches fills a 6 cup capacity tray

Directions:

  1. Set the heat to medium or medium-low. This is important because we are not using butter or oil on the bread.  Slow and low will get you the best results
  2. Place one slice of bread in the pan
  3. Top with two slices of cheese
  4. Cover with the second slice of bread
  5. Place a lid on the pan and allow the cheese to heat while the bread slightly browns
  6. Flip the sandwich and repeat the process on the other side
  7. Toast the bread lightly
  8. Remove the crust from the bread
  9. Cut the grilled cheese into small squares about the size of a crouton
  10. Place the squares on parchment-lined trays
  11. Freeze dry (my cycle time was 13 hours)

Rehydration:

Simply add to whatever soup you are eating, or eat as is. 

Notes:

These are a great addition to any soup as a crunchy cheesy topping.
