Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F and set out a baking sheet.
Slice the Kaiser rolls in half and place them cut side up on the baking sheet.
Spread half the red pepper jelly on each of the two bottom pieces.
Place 2 slices of turkey on each bottom piece. Then top each turkey with 2 apple slices. Layer the brie equally over the sandwiches.
Bake the turkey sandwiches for 5 - 8 minutes or until the brie has melted and the top (empty) bun has toasted.
Spread the Dijon mustard on the top bun. Pile 1/4 cup of arugula on top of the melted brie and close the sandwich.
Sandwiches can be served warm immediately or you can let them cool and wrap them in parchment paper or aluminum foil and store them in the fridge.
Make Ahead Tips: The turkey brie sandwiches can be made up to 24 hours in advance but then should be served cold. Don't reheat the sandwich with the fresh arugula tucked inside.
