Equipment

  • medium saucepan
  • Cast Iron Skillet

Ingredients
  

For the Bread

  • 4 slices Sourdough or Whole Grain Bread Sturdy bread that holds up well

For the Cheeses

  • 4 ounces White Cheddar Sharp, zesty cheese
  • 4 ounces Mozzarella Creamy, melty cheese

For the Blueberry Compote

  • 1 cup Fresh Blueberries Seasonal berries can be used
  • ½ cup White Sugar Honey can be substituted
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon Juice Fresh-squeezed is best
  • 1 teaspoon Lemon Thyme Adds aromatic flavor

For Grilling

  • 2 tablespoons Butter Can use margarine if preferred

Instructions
 

Directions

  • Prepare Compote: In a medium saucepan, mix fresh blueberries, white sugar, lemon juice, and lemon thyme. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer on medium-low for 20 minutes until thick and jammy. Allow cooling.
  • Assemble Sandwiches: Spread the luscious blueberry compote on one side of each slice of bread. Layer the white cheddar and mozzarella on top of the compote, then place the remaining bread slices on top.
  • Grill: Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium heat, adding a generous pat of butter. Grill each sandwich for 2-3 minutes per side until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is gloriously melted. Adjust heat as needed to avoid burning.
  • Serve: Cut the sandwiches in half and if desired, sprinkle with flaky sea salt and fresh thyme for an extra touch of flavor.

Notes

Pair with a side of fresh fruit for a delightful contrast.
