Recipe Ingredients:
- 2 slices prosciutto
- 2 thick slices sourdough bread
- 4 ounces triple cream Brie, sliced
- 8 to 10 blackberries
- 2 tablespoons blackberry jam
- 3 tablespoons salted butter, at room temperature
- 1 tablespoon balsamic glaze
- 1 teaspoon everything bagel seasoning, such as Trader Joe’s Everything But the Bagel Sesame Seasoning Blend
- 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
How To Make Blackberry Brie Grilled Cheese?
- Crisp the prosciutto: Preheat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the prosciutto and cook until crisp, about 2 minutes per side. Remove and turn the heat down to medium-low.
- Assemble the sandwich: Place one slice of sourdough on a cutting board. Layer the Brie on top, then press the blackberries into the Brie so they stick. Add the crispy prosciutto. Spread the blackberry jam on the second slice of bread and place it on top, jam side down.
- Make the butter mixture: In a small bowl, mix the softened butter, balsamic glaze, bagel seasoning, and crushed red pepper flakes. Spread half of this mixture on the top slice of bread.
- Toast the sandwich: Place the sandwich, buttered side down, into the skillet. Spread the remaining butter on the top slice. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side, pressing gently with a spatula, until golden brown and crispy, and the Brie is melted.
- Serve and enjoy: Transfer the sandwich to a cutting board, let it rest for a minute, then slice in half. Serve warm and enjoy!
Recipe Tips:
- Use room-temperature butter : It spreads easily and gives the bread an even golden crust.
- Press the blackberries into the Brie : This keeps them from sliding out when flipping.
- Cook on medium-low heat : High heat can burn the bread before the cheese melts.
- Let it rest before cutting : This helps the Brie set slightly for the perfect cheesy bite.
- Try different jams : Raspberry, fig, or even honey work great if you don’t have blackberry jam!
How To Store & Reheat Leftovers?
- Refrigerate: Let the sandwich cool to room temperature first. Then, wrap it tightly in foil or place it in an airtight container. Store in the fridge for up to 2 days.
- Reheat: Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Place the sandwich in the pan and cover it with a lid. Cook for 2–3 minutes per side until warm and crispy again.
