Add the apples, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla extract, and lemon juice to the skillet.

If desired, spread 1 tablespoon of cream cheese on the unbuttered side of 4 of the slices of bread for extra creaminess.

Spoon a generous amount of the cooked apple mixture onto the cream cheese or plain side of the bread slices. Top each with another slice of bread, buttered side facing out.

Step 9

Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy.
