Description

This Blackberry Brie Grilled Cheese is a delightful twist on a classic favorite, combining creamy, buttery brie cheese with fresh, juicy blackberries. Grilled to golden perfection with a hint of cinnamon and a drizzle of honey, this sandwich offers a perfect balance of sweet and savory flavors, making it an elegant and comforting treat for any time of day.

Ingredients

Scale

Sandwich

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 slices thick sandwich bread

Filling

  • 1/2 cup blackberries, sliced lengthwise
  • 4 ounces brie cheese, rind removed
  • Drizzle of honey (optional)
  • Sprinkle of cinnamon (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Bread: Butter both sides of the sandwich bread slices evenly. Preheat a cast iron skillet, griddle, or similar pan over medium heat. Place the buttered bread slices on the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until the bread is lightly browned on one side, then flip each slice.
  2. Add the Filling: On one piece of bread (the side that is cooked and browned), layer the brie cheese followed by the sliced blackberries. If desired, add a drizzle of honey and sprinkle cinnamon over the filling for extra flavor.
  3. Assemble and Grill: Top the blackberry and brie-lined slice with the other slice of bread, browned side down. Continue cooking on medium heat, flipping the sandwich carefully as needed, until the cheese has melted and both sides of the sandwich are golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes more.

Notes

  • Remove the rind from the brie cheese to ensure a smoother melt and more mild flavor.
  • Use thick sandwich bread to hold the fillings well and achieve a crispy exterior.
  • Optional honey and cinnamon enhance sweetness, but can be omitted for a more savory profile.
  • Cook on medium heat to avoid burning the bread before the cheese melts.
  • This sandwich is best enjoyed immediately for optimal melty texture.
