Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. (Time: 2 minutes)

02

Step

In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard until smooth. Spread this mixture evenly on one side of each slice of bread.

03

Step

Evenly distribute the shredded pepperjack cheese over the mayonnaise-mustard layer of two bread slices. Top with the remaining bread slices to form two sandwiches.

04

Step

Place one sandwich in the preheated waffle iron. Initially, avoid fully closing the lid. (Time: 30 seconds)

05

Step

Once the bread begins to soften slightly from the heat, gently lower the waffle iron lid without latching it. Cook for approximately 2 minutes.

06

Step

Gradually increase the pressure on the waffle iron, latching it closed after a total of 3-4 minutes of cooking. (Time: 1 minute)

07

Step

Continue cooking until the sandwich is deeply golden brown and the cheese is fully melted and gooey, about 2-3 minutes more. (Time: 2-3 minutes)

08

Step

Remove the grilled cheese waffle and repeat with the remaining sandwich.

For extra flavor, try adding a thin layer of caramelized onions or a few slices of tomato to the sandwich before waffling.
Experiment with different cheeses! Gruyere, cheddar, or even a blend of cheeses would work wonderfully.
Serve immediately for the best crispy-gooey experience. Consider pairing with a side of tangy tomato soup or a crisp green salad.
