Description
A unique twist on a classic favorite, this Balsamic Blackberry Bliss Grilled Cheese combines the richness of melted cheddar cheese with the tangy-sweetness of a balsamic blackberry sauce. Perfect for those looking to elevate their grilled cheese game with a burst of flavor.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 slices of bread
- 1 cup fresh blackberries
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 8 slices of cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup butter
Instructions
- Prepare the blackberry balsamic sauce: In a small saucepan, combine the blackberries and balsamic vinegar. Cook over medium heat until the blackberries break down and the mixture thickens, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
- Assemble the sandwiches: Butter one side of each slice of bread. Place a slice of cheddar cheese on the unbuttered side of 4 slices of bread. Spoon a generous amount of the blackberry mixture over the cheese and top with the remaining slices of bread, buttered side out.
- Cook the sandwiches: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
- Serve and enjoy: Serve the grilled cheese sandwiches hot for the perfect balance of gooey cheese and sweet-tangy blackberry sauce.
Notes
- You can use any bread of your choice, but thicker slices work best for grilling.
- For an extra kick, try adding a bit of fresh basil or arugula to the sandwich before grilling.
