Description

This Brie and Blackberry Jam Grilled Cheese sandwich pairs creamy, melty Brie cheese with the sweet and tangy flavors of blackberry jam, mustard, and fresh rosemary. Perfect for a quick gourmet-style lunch or snack, it’s a delightful twist on a classic grilled cheese using wholesome whole-grain bread and a flavorful herb infusion.

Ingredients

Scale

Spread

  • 1 tablespoon blackberry jam
  • 1 teaspoon whole-grain mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon finely chopped fresh rosemary

Main

  • 2 slices whole-grain sandwich bread (preferably country-style)
  • 3 slices Brie cheese (about 2 ounces)
  • Cooking spray (for skillet and bread)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Spread: In a small bowl, stir together the blackberry jam, whole-grain mustard, and finely chopped fresh rosemary until well combined to form a flavorful spread.
  2. Assemble Sandwich: Evenly spread the prepared jam mixture onto one side of a slice of the whole-grain bread. Layer the Brie cheese slices directly atop the spread, then cover with the second slice of bread to form a sandwich.
  3. Heat Skillet: Lightly coat a small nonstick skillet with cooking spray and heat it over medium-low heat to ensure gentle melting without burning.
  4. Prepare Bread Exterior: Lightly spray the outsides of both bread slices with cooking spray; this helps the bread toast to a golden color and prevents sticking.
  5. Cook First Side: Place the sandwich in the heated skillet, cover with a lid, and cook until the bottom side is golden brown, about 3 minutes. Covering helps melt the cheese evenly.
  6. Cook Second Side: Flip the sandwich carefully, cover again, and continue cooking until the other side is golden and the Brie has melted completely, about 2 to 3 minutes more.
  7. Serve: Remove the sandwich from the skillet, slice diagonally for an appealing presentation, and serve hot while the cheese is gooey and the flavors are at their best.

Notes

  • Use a nonstick skillet for easy flipping and to avoid sticking.
  • Cooking over medium-low heat ensures even melting without burning the bread.
  • Covering the skillet during cooking helps melt the Brie quickly and thoroughly.
  • Fresh rosemary adds a lovely herbal note; substitute with thyme if preferred.
  • Serve immediately for best texture and flavor.
