Brie Grilled Cheese - a fun spin on a beloved classic! This Brie Grilled Cheese Recipe is easy, delicious and packed with flavor!
Ingredients
- 2 slices whole wheat bread
- 2 Tablespoons butter
- 6 fresh sweet basil leaves
- 1 Tablespoon boysenberry jam/jelly/preserves
- 5 1/4 inch thick slices of brie cheese remove outer rind (more or less to taste)
Instructions
- Take cast iron skillet and bring to medium heat.
- Take two pieces of bread and lay flat next to each other.
- On one side, add cheese and ensure entire piece of bread is covered (you may need more or less depending upon the size of your bread).
- On the other, take about 1/2 Tablespoon butter and spread evenly over entire piece.
- Take boysenberry jam and spread on top of butter.
- Place basil on top of cheese.
- Take the piece of bread with the jelly on it and flip it over on top of the cheese so that the jelly and the cheese come together.
- Take another 1/2 Tablespoon of butter and butter the outside of one of the pieces of bread.
- Then place the sandwich, butter side down, in the skillet.
- Reduce heat if needed.
- Watch carefully and ensure bread is not burning.
- When cheese starts to melt (probably after 3 minutes or so), butter the top side of the sandwich with butter (carefully - don't burn yourself!).
- Then flip sandwich over.
- Continue to watch carefully and remove when cheese is fully melted (probably another 3 minutes or so).
- Set on plate and serve immediately. Garnish with sweet basil.
