Ingredients
  

For the Sandwich
  • 4 slices Sourdough or White Bread Feel free to swap for whole grain or gluten-free options.
  • 1 cup Fresh or Frozen Blueberries Adjust sugar based on your berry's tartness.
  • 1 tablespoon Sugar Use less if your berries are already sweet, or substitute with your favorite sweetener.
  • 4 ounces Cream Cheese or Brie Provides a creamy richness.
  • 1 cup Shredded Mozzarella or Fontina Cheese Melts beautifully and delivers a gooey sandwich experience.
  • 2 tablespoons Butter Essential for that golden, crispy finish; vegan butter can be used for a dairy-free option.
  • 1 pinch Flaky Sea Salt Sprinkle to elevate flavors.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Blueberry Grilled Cheese
  1. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine your fresh or frozen blueberries with sugar. Cook for about 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until bubbly and jammy.
  2. While the blueberry mixture cools slightly, spread a layer of cream cheese or brie on one side of each slice of bread. On two slices, add shredded mozzarella or fontina cheese, then spoon the warm blueberry filling over the cheese.
  3. Spread butter generously on the outside of each sandwich, covering evenly. Heat the skillet over medium-low heat.
  4. Place the sandwiches in the heated skillet and cook for about 3–4 minutes on each side, pressing down gently with a spatula.
  5. Once golden and the cheese is melted, remove from the skillet and let rest for 1–2 minutes before slicing and serving.
