Questions I often get asked about this recipe:
What is the best type of bread to use for this sandwich?
Sourdough or country white bread work well because they are sturdy enough to hold up to the filling and the grilling process.
Can I use a different type of cheese instead of Brie?
Yes, you can. Other creamy cheeses like goat cheese or Havarti would also be delicious in this sandwich.
How long should I cook the sandwich?
Cook the sandwich for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
What temperature should the skillet be?
The skillet should be over medium heat.
Can I cook the sandwich in a toaster oven?
Yes, you can cook the sandwich in a toaster oven. However, you may need to adjust the cooking time.
What can I add to the sandwich for extra flavor?
A drizzle of honey or a sprinkle of fresh thyme can add a delicious extra flavor to the sandwich.
Is the sandwich sweet or savory?
The sandwich is a balance of sweet and savory flavors. The blackberry jam adds sweetness, while the Brie cheese and bread add savory elements.
What you need to make Blackberry & Brie Grilled Sandwich:
2 slices of bread (sourdough or country white work well)
2 ounces Brie cheese, sliced
1/4 cup blackberry jam
1 tablespoon butter
Fresh blackberries (optional)
How to make it:
Prepare the bread: Butter one side of each bread slice.
Assemble the sandwich: Place one slice of bread, butter side down, in a skillet over medium heat. Top with a slice of Brie cheese.
Add the jam: Spread the blackberry jam on the remaining slice of bread. Place it on top of the cheese.
Cook until golden brown: Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted. Carefully flip the sandwich and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the other side is golden brown.
Serve: Remove the sandwich from the skillet and cut in half diagonally. Serve immediately.
Optional: For a little extra flavor, add a drizzle of honey or a sprinkle of fresh thyme to the sandwich before serving.
Tips:
Use ripe blackberries: Ripe blackberries will have a sweeter and more intense flavor, which will complement the Brie cheese perfectly.
Don’t overcook the sandwich: It’s important to cook the sandwich until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted, but be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked bread can become dry and tough.
Serve immediately: For the best flavor and texture, serve the sandwich immediately after cooking. If you need to wait, keep it warm in a covered container.
