Ingredients

– 2 slices of sourdough or artisan bread
– 4 oz brie cheese, sliced

– 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
– Fresh blackberries, for garnish (optional)
– Fresh basil or arugula, for garnish (optional)


Instructions

Making the Blackberry Balsamic & Brie Grilled Cheese is a simple yet rewarding process. Follow these easy steps to create your delicious masterpiece:

1. Prepare the Balsamic Reduction: In a small saucepan, combine the blackberry jam and balsamic vinegar. Heat gently over low heat, stirring until well combined and slightly thickened. Set aside to cool.

2. Prepare the Bread and Cheese: Lay the slices of bread on a clean surface. Evenly spread a layer of the balsamic reduction on one side of each slice.

3. Add Cheese: Layer the brie slices generously on top of the balsamic side of one slice of bread.

4. Top it Off: Put the second slice of bread, balsamic side down, on top of the brie to create a sandwich.

5. Prepare to Grill: In a skillet, melt half of the butter over medium heat.

6. Grill the Sandwich: Place the sandwich in the skillet and grill until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes.

7. Flip and Finish: Melt the remaining butter in the skillet. Carefully flip the sandwich over and grill the other side until golden brown and the brie is melted, approximately 3-4 more minutes.

8. Garnish: Once done, remove the sandwich from heat. If desired, garnish with fresh blackberries and basil or arugula.

9. Slice and Serve: Cut the sandwich in half for easier eating.

These concise steps ensure you can create a delightful Blackberry Balsamic & Brie Grilled Cheese with ease and satisfaction.
