Blueberry Grilled Cheese
This gourmet Blueberry Grilled Cheese pairs ooey-gooey local cheese with juicy blueberries for a sweet-and-savoury twist. Grilled to golden perfection with butter from right here in Ontario, it’s a creative take on a classic sandwich inspired by local flavour.
Ingredients
Blueberry Spread
Cheese Filling
Instructions
Prepare the Blueberry Layer
- StepIn a small bowl, gently toss blueberries with honey and lemon juice. Let sit for 5 minutes so juices begin to develop.
Butter the Bread
- StepSpread butter evenly on one side of both slices of bread. This will create a beautifully crisp, golden exterior when grilled.
Assemble the Sandwich
- StepOn the unbuttered side of one slice, layer half of the shredded white cheddar and mozzarella. Spoon the blueberry mixture evenly over the cheese. Top with the remaining shredded cheeses and then the second slice of bread, buttered side out.
Grill the Sandwich
- StepHeat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Place the sandwich in the pan and cook 2–3 minutes per side, pressing down gently with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
Serve Warm
- StepTransfer to a cutting board, slice in half, and serve immediately while the cheese is gooey and the blueberries burst with sweet-tart flavour.
