1. Start by preparing the honey peach slices. In a small bowl, toss the thinly sliced peaches with honey and lemon juice. This wakes up their flavor and adds a lovely glaze. Set aside for about 5 minutes.
2. Butter one side of each bread slice generously. This will help you get that golden, crispy outside we all crave.
3. Heat a skillet over medium-low heat. Low and slow is key here to ensure the cheese melts without burning the bread (I learned this the hard way once when I was rushing!).
4. Place two slices of bread, buttered side down, onto the skillet. Layer each with half the cheese, then a generous handful of honey peach slices, and finally the remaining cheese. Top with the other bread slices, buttered side up.
5. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then carefully flip the sandwich. Press down gently with a spatula to help everything meld together. Cook the other side for another 4-5 minutes until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
6. Remove from heat and let rest for a minute before slicing. If you’re feeling fancy, sprinkle fresh thyme or basil leaves on top for a pop of flavor and color.

One kitchen lesson I’ve learned is not to rush the melting. Kids (and adults) love that gooey cheese pull, but no one likes a burnt sandwich. Patience pays off here.
