- 2 slices artisan bread
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 3 ounces brie cheese, sliced
- 1/4 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- Gently toss the fresh blueberries with the lemon zest and sugar in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Spread butter evenly on one side of each slice of bread.
- Place one slice of bread, butter-side down, in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Layer the brie cheese slices over the bread in the skillet.
- Distribute the sugared blueberries evenly over the cheese.
- Top with the second slice of bread, butter-side up.
- Grill for 3 to 4 minutes per side, pressing down lightly with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
- Remove from the skillet, slice in half, and serve immediately.
Notes
- Use a mild, creamy cheese like brie or mascarpone for the best melt and flavor balance.
- For a richer flavor, use sourdough or brioche bread.
- If fresh blueberries are unavailable, use 1 tablespoon of thick blueberry jam instead of fresh berries and sugar.
